Dear Mister Cynical,
Some of my most favorite things are warm spring rain on the prairie, tying up my greeting cards in bright colored yarn, homemade baked bread, while whiskers on kittens don’t get a charge out of me, cute non allergic dander haired dogs do.

Just the fact that she’s a young nun . . . and one who loves children! That’s unrealistic enough for me.

Unrealistic, perhaps.

But I would like to say a word in it’s behalf.

Maria.

Makes me

Laugh

In high school, the worst thing a girl could do to a guy would be to have him over to watch The Sound of Music. We tied them to the armchairs and watched their faces grow desperate.

The worst thing our choir teacher could do was had you Edelweiss for an upcoming solo concert.

And that movie forever scarred me from enjoying that moment in Gone With the Wind when Scarlett makes a dress out of her mother’s drapes, because the entire time, all I can hear is Julie Andrews singing, “Girls in white dresses in blue satin sashes…”

But my mother loved it. So come mother’s day all of us would resign ourselves to The Sound of Music with as much beer as we could handle.

The entire score of the Sound of Music is etched into my brain. Realism matters not. Plus — there are lessons to be learned:

- Kids should wear household textiles and like it.

- Wives and children can be trained to respond to whistles.

- If your male friend-of-the-family seems like a closet case, he’s also probably a Nazi sympathizer.

I’m sure I’m missing some.

Hil – Geeze or wild geese, even if they’ve got the moon on their wings, I’m not buying it one bit.

They’re not just geese Pauly. They’re wild geese.
