Merry Holidays
Maybe long in the tooth, but I’ve posted this near the end of the last several years, and it seems many enjoy it as much as I do. A few people have encouraged me to keep posting it around the holidays.
As I’ve said before, I would have been beside myself with joy if I’d been one of the surprised crowd. Even better on a big screen with good speakers. Magic!

What a wonderful post for the holiday season.
Makes one think: What if daily life between humans were punctuated not by moments of spontaneous hostility and irrationality, but by moments of spontaneous camaraderie and openness.
It says something that an example of the latter, albeit staged, seems so surprising, foreign and wondrous. Good reminder for the holidays.
