Chillies in chocolate

Chillies in chocolate.

Chillies in chocolate,
and five spice in potatoes.
A fine oatmeal stout,
while reading about volcanoes.
Vibraphones and train wheels
and bells that don't ring.
These are a few of my favorite things.......

Life is grand and it is the odd little bits that make the journey so wonderful.
Mysterious combinations of things not thought of together form incredible unions that leave one shouting "Zounds and Gadzooks".
What would the world be like without bagpipes and allspice, Bitters and kimchi.

Thank the stars that in a Democracy we have the the freedom to be the odd lots that we are and are not bound by popular rule.
Pass me the figgy pudding and turn up the Captain Beefheart.
Out of many we are one. I love that idea.

Think of just a few Americans that have passed on this year and how amazing it is that they made this country great by their uniqueness.
Blake Edwards. Director(Breakfast at Tiffany's, The Party)
Lena Horne. Actress, Chanteuse, activist.
Daniel Schor. Journalist.
Captain Beefheart. Musician extraordinaire.
Completely different but free to be who they were and we are all richer for it.
Be well and happy explorations to you.
