In a tower tall, concealed from sight,
A maiden dwells, her hair so bright.
Repunzel, they named this fair young lass,
Her tresses long, like a gleaming glass.
Her golden locks, a radiant sheen,
Cascaded down with grace and mien.
A prisoner high, in that lofty spire,
A damsel yearning for life entire.
Each passing day, she'd let down her hair,
As silky strands hung in the air.
A prince did come, with love so true,
He climbed her tresses, the maiden to woo.
But in this tower, enchantment bound,
The tale of Repunzel is renowned.
A witch's curse, a captive's plea,
A fairy tale, a destiny.
Yet Repunzel, with heart so kind,
Left her tower, her past behind.
With courage and spirit, she embraced the earth,
Proving her worth and proving her worth.
So remember the tale of Repunzel fair,
Her radiant beauty, her flowing hair.
A princess strong, with dreams unconfined,
In the story of Repunzel, a free heart you'll find

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.
