To Kahuna; the words were more than music, gratitude overwhelmed
him and and he had to fight back a tear as he read.

Balloons fall from ceiling! Streamers fly!
Trumpets sound! A choir sings the Halleluia Chorus
And look! THere's a plane skywriting "Congratulations James!" in the
blue, blue sky. Life is full of these small joys and celebrations.
We rejoice with you! We admire your enthusiasm and your appreciation
of these tiny moments of pleasure.
Now get out of my way and don't even THINK about 8400, you greedy
gruntling.

Yes now he could see the Balloons falling , and the Streamers flying,
He could hear the Trumpets sounding and , the Chorus singing.
And gazing up at the clear blue sky, he wondered why,
So as one thought gave way to another that day,
He let memories have the most to say..
and it all came clear.
Now
he knew
how ,
the Tin man in the land of Oz felt..
When he was given a heart.
-------------------------------
And he became speechless, for now he understood Penni..and was filled
with absolute wonder that with her extraordinary power she had such
a kind and warm heart. He wished he could immediately through himself
at her feet and pledge to be as a servant to her from this day on.
Yet knowing himself so well he knew he could not ever be worthy
enough of even being a servant to her, and also likely would not
make a good one.
So he decided maybe he would try to steal the next double O in
hopes she would perhaps at least scold him or something.
----------------------------
And all the insanity on the Rambi thread become delightful.
