of all human life
is play.
Earth is a task garden;
Heaven is a playground.”

Cheers in Boston, Massachusetts “Where Everybody Knows Your Name”. Located at the edge of the Public Gardens, on Beacon Hill, is a popular watering hole-turned-landmark in Boston. The friendly neighborhood bar attracts visitors from all walks of life. Could it be the fact that for over a decade the sitcom catapulted this local pub into the mainstream? Week after week its down-to-earth cast of characters brought light hearted laughter into our own living rooms. No wonder others still gravitate to this local hangout. You should, too, the next time you’re in Boston, Massachusetts. Cheers.
“There are times when I have to take,
I call it a ‘silence bath,’
where I shut off all
of the external gadgets.
I go walk around,
talk to people,
and just live for a while.”
~ Patton Oswalt
“The wide world is all about you;
you can fence yourselves in,
but you cannot forever
fence it out.”

“A single rose can be
my garden…
a single friend,
my world.”

“America is hope.
It is compassion.
It is excellence.
It is valor.”

“In the End,
we will remember
not the words
of our enemies,
but the silence
of our friends.”

Ventriloquism has never been my thing. I remember my older cousins laughing about the antics of Howdy Doody, but maybe I was too young to get it. He looked a little too scary to me. Fast forward to the British recent winner of “America’s Got Talent” and I found myself taking a second look. You will, too. This guy is so good, prepare to be entertained in Las Vegas. The live show was nonstop comedy as Paul Zerdin interacted with the audience through his believable “family” of infant Baby, pre-adolescent Sam, and Albert the outspoken old geezer. The surprises never end as this entire cast of characters come to life. Or do they? Decide for yourself.
“Good, better, best.
Never let it rest.

And your better is best.”
