The world lost Stephen Sondheim this week. Sondheim was a musical genius, and he left his impact on us all. Whether you knew all his songs by heart, or you just heard his songs popping up in movies and tv shows (and didn't realize the origins); Sondheim still was always there.
As my American friends celebrate Thanksgiving, and Hannukah begins and the Christmas seasons ramps up, it seems to fitting to take a moment to be thankful for Sondheim.
This Judi Dench version of "Send in the Clowns" remains a favorite of mine. And after this week, it certainly feels like it's time to send in the clowns in a comical way (not the heartfelt regret that Judi sings of). So, I'll pay homage to Stephen with a "Send in the Clowns" nod, and note that it's been fun. Christmas markets closing in Austria and Germany has led to Christmas market river cruises being cancelled this week, and the sudden explosion of Omicron variant of CoVid from
South Africa has certainly got everyone's attention. The news is still emerging, and we'll wait to hear what the scientists share with us. But, the simple truth is that we've lived 20 months now in a CoVid world, and the need to still live our lives has never been stronger. We can still travel -safely, of course...
