God does not force the good upon us, and human love cannot supply what God will not compel. Love is not enough.

Happy Birthday to the Colonel

That would be my father. He's retired career military, and son of a retired (and deceased) career military, so he likes music in the following genre, a CD of such-like I recently burned for him:



But he was also, as a young officer back in '56 or 7 or thereabouts, fortunate enough to see the original Broadway version of My Fair Lady. That is, in person, in the actual Broadway theater. From that moment on, I think he might have been smitten lifelong with Julie Andrews, but Maw never protested, or else she'd have had to explain her own smittenness with Rex Harrison. They seem to have worked it out.



Happy 86th, Colonel.
