  2. I loved that video from the first time that I saw it. I watched it again, with no less amusement. For the first time, I noticed that they were flipping signs up with their feet. For heaven's sake! How did I miss that?

  9. Haha. I had to get Cohen’s Hallelujah out of my head. And then there was a chorus that we sang in my long past evangelical days.

  10. thanks, I have been counting Hallelujahs for several weeks, using them to counter attack the non-hallelujahs that have been hitting us. It does help to count them
