The mortal danger of being Paula Dean

Yesterday, right before drifting off the sleep came a report on CNN
.... Paula Dean was hit in the face with a ham.
-- I sat up in bed. --
Did I really hear that right?
Is this a David Letterman sketch?
Didn't I hear this sort-of thing before?

Yes, apparently she was handing out free hams and someone decided to throw one back to her.

Oops! But, why did this still sound so familiar to me?

Ah, yes...Then I remembered when Kathy Griffin, of My Life on the D-List, when she also whipped Paula in the face with "a switch."

No, really. In the face. She did that.

I'm not kidding.

Y'all just have to stop hitting Paula in the face all the time.
