Does God tell stories to God?
Or is it we who must urgently tell each other
what we’ve seen of God in this short time we have?
A comment on Brother Blue: If you have discovered the radiance of your soul, if you can close your eyes and see all the lilies of the field in Technicolor, and then you open your eyes and see a world in gray, drowning in fear and silence, wouldn't you want to turn the brightness and contrast of your own image all the way up? Not because you expect to change the world, but just to keep the world from changing you.

Katie Green said… - Hey Michael. I think it's great that you will be at Karen's new venue. I am hoping and hoping that I will be there. Want to bring my lawyer hubby and watch him smile. Today is voting day, and I notice a lot of smiles in my small town. Last night I telephoned people in NC for Obama, and it was neat to hear so many people so enthusiastic about voting for him.

- From Bambi Good - thought of you -
Check out p. 8 of today's Globe Calendar for a possible new venue for a sports storyteller, the new supper club at Gillette Stadium with room for, gulp, 508 people, but nobody is more than 35 feet from the stage. Here is a great challenge for someone!!! Booking is handled by Blue Note.

Peggy Melanson said… - Michael... It's so wonderful to see you doing so well with your performing. When are you going on Oprah? I think she would love the Storytelling Satirist Attorney.. If you do get a gig with her, call me, I'll go along as your pet older person. I'll even wear a collar and leash if she will let me tell a story too.
Hugs
Peggy

What a cool page you've made! That Forster quote: "an aristocracy of the sensitive, the considerate and the plucky..." I believe in that, too - and I want in!
Hope you're brimming with inspiration, tales and pluck these days -
and thanks, too, for kindly be-friending me -
Kate
