Say goodnight

There is a time for life and inevitably a time for death.
On this occasion you learn to live with this sober reality; it is the consequence and privilege of long life.
But, there are times when a loss arrives suddenly, bringing "shock" to the receiver, being unprepared for its arrival. And in the process simultaneously drawing its recipient closer to that ultimate fate AND sparking inspiration for life-- cuz: the dead are watching...


"Hello!"

This was my reaction upon reading of the passing of Kermit Love.

The brilliant puppeteer, who had worked with theater masters George Balanchine, Twyla Tharp and Orson Welles. Though professionally it was his cooperation with Jim Henson in creating the internationally acclaimed "Sesame Street", with Love creating many characters, most notably "Big Bird."(animated by Carroll Spinney)

Though as a gay man, I believe his "greatest" achievement was in maintaining his 50 year commitment to his partner Christopher Lyall.

Gone, but not forgotten by bilions, because IDEAS ARE ETERNAL...

Kermit Love: Rest in peace!
