From Act I of Madame Butterfly is the most beautiful aria ever composed. 
I know.  I took the words right out of your mouth!

Today we spotlight Anslem Douglas, the immortal wordsmith and arguably the greatest living contemporary American Poet.
Who among us does not feel a groundswell of emotion and a stirring in their loins that can only be described as life-altering when hearing the lyrical cadence of Anslem’s oft repeated question that falls softly on one’s ears like eiderdown pillows of thoughtful introspection:

“Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?”

How dare you accuse me of being Pretentious?  I am nothing of the sort.  Perhaps because I exuded one oeillade when an anaphora might have been more apropos but I was eager to peregrinate and lacked the requisite chronological interval to accommodate the diminished intellectual capacity of the average homo sapien, that is to employ a less erudite exposition.  Avancez mon ami sans instruction.

 Yoga is a series of movement’s incorporating four elements:
Love, generosity, honesty and compassion in what is described as a Moving Meditation.
If our representatives practiced this perhaps the last four years would not have happened?
And when all positions are filled there, many opportunities will still exist in Texas, South Carolina, Georgia and Kentucky.
No need to try Florida though.  That is a designated  an “Honesty & Compassion Free” zone .

Tonight is the first night of Passover.  Warm greetings to everyone.
You might be surprised to know that Jesus was Jewish and still is regardless, of what Mel Gibson says.

Yawn!  Enough! Remember the good old days when a Gender Reveal Party happened at time of birth?  The OB-GYN (or Doula) said “It’s a __________!  Fill in the blank.
Do you really think a girl in a  blue or boy in a pink room will result in  gender confusion?  Paint the nursury a neutral color and move on.

If you have ever enjoyed the delicate taste of a matzo ball slathered in butter and jam I can safely say that you are definitely goyim (but very loveable!).

Take Heart!
“When work becomes worrisome, know that God will be by your side.”
However, if your boss believes the same quote you are screwed.
No one can do more damage than a numbskull who thinks God is on his side: #Televangelists  #Politicians  #Kardashians

Another string of tragic events but let’s look at the brightside.  The gun manufacturers and the retail outlets are booming and we know from the last four years we never let a few lives, or a few hundred thousand lives, get in the way of profit!
I get it.  You’re afraid and “Happiness is a Warm Gun”  but how about a waiting period for a background check?  That’s a problem  for you?

What do these four things have in common?
     1. Actor Morales.
     2. A smoothie berry.
     3. Most populated Hawaiian Island.
     4. A black and white treat.
     5. A rapier with a 3-sided blade.
If you are a crossword aficionado you already know the answer as they appear almost daily on any puzzle.  They are all four letter words and owe their popularity to 3 of the four letters being vowels.
