You'll Never Know What You're Gonna Get
A Poem that Celebrates Life's Variety
If you’re a Forrest Gump fan, you’ll know what he says about chocolates.
Yes, life is, indeed, a box of chocolates, with some pieces being, to put it mildly, acquired tastes. But each taste is a significant piece of the puzzles that are our lives. We notice the differences, however subtle, as we take little nibbles.
So enjoy your chocolate (I know I do), and this little poem.

Life unfolds in shades of gold,
The scent of cocoa whispers dreams untold.
Each bite bursts—bitter, yet sweet,
A crunch of surprise with each cocoa treat.
And it melts, its taste remains—complete.

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.
