"Finally, I suspect that it is by entering that deep place inside us where our secrets are kept that we come perhaps closer than we do anywhere else to the One who, whether we realize it or not, is of all our secrets the most telling and the most precious we have to tell." Frederick Buechner

NPR Spoofs Lady Gaga
Today has been a bit of a whirl, but I must say, I just love this NPR spoof of Lady Gaga.
I mean Nina Tottenberg.
Ari Shapiro.
Joe Palca.
Korva Coleman.
Robert Siegel.
And, none other than Michele 'Be-still-my-heart' Norris.
All of these wonderful folk in whom I place my trust for hard-hitting, analytical news and commentary, doing none other than The Divine Ms. Gaga:
"Stop calling. Stop calling'. I don't want to think any more. I left my head and my heart on the dance floor."
Sometimes, ya just gotta find your way to silly in order to make it back out into the regular, serious stuff of life.
If anybody can take you there and back, it's Lady Gaga.
But, to see some of the NPR gang make the trip sorta makes me feel like something in the cosmos shifted just enough to make things right with the world for a few minutes.
I feel better already.
