Happy Who Year!

(It is about one or two o’clock in the morning on January 1st and I am in the family room. I am an avid fan of Doctor Who. My mother does not like science fiction, though she puts up with my obsession. Early in the morning of New Year’s Day I start watching an episode from DVR. My mother, who has fallen asleep sometime before midnight, wakes up during the theme song.)

Mom: “Please do NOT tell me that the first thing I am hearing this year is THAT.”
