July 22, 2024 World Brain Day
- An Ode to the Wondrous Mind
On this day, Jul 22 2024
we honor the marvel that lies within
The command center that guides us
our thoughts to begin
The brain, a universe unto itself
a boundless domain
Holds the key to our cognition
our emotions to maintain
From the moment we take our first breath
till our final day
This intricate organ charts the course
showing us the way
Processing sights, sounds, and sensations
every moment anew
Weaving a tapestry of memories
both cherished and true
Within its folds and synapses
a symphony plays
Neurons firing, connections forged
guiding us through the maze
The ability to reason, to imagine
to problem-solve with grace
All stem from this remarkable organ
the crown of the human race
Yet, the brain is fragile
a delicate, complex machine
Requiring care and nourishment
to keep it sharp and keen
On this World Brain Day
let us vow to treasure this gift
To protect it, to nurture it
and help those in need to uplift
For in honoring the brain
we honor the essence of who we are
The very foundation that allows us
to reach for the stars
So let us celebrate this remarkable
wondrous part
And pledge to keep it healthy
both in mind and in heart

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.
