On a recent episode of the TV Game Show “The Price is Right,” exquisite and mesmeric model, Manuela Arbelaez, who assists the host Drew Carey, accidentally revealed the winning price in one of the games – while the contestant was still playing!  The contestant, “Andrea,” got to keep the vehicle (and, in fact, went on to become the show’s ultimate paladin).  The contestant, “Andrea,” had to discern which of 5 potential prices the true tariff on a brand new vehicle was.  Each salvo was inscribed on a card and the 5 cards assembled atop one another on a narrow placard about 6 feet in height.

Do you know a Green Goddess?  No, not the creamy, decadent, bizarre colored salad dressing that is slathered all over lettuce and other such green vegetables.  But rather this term now refers to a gal who is environmentally conscious and goes to extremes in order to recycle just about everything. She is denoted as “green” because she cares about the long-term health of our planet. I have a relative who fits this description to a tea.  She may be a bit kooky, but her heart is in the right place.

Okay, so I am not as a prolific a rhymer as the beloved Dr. Seuss. His parables are legendary and a cherished memory from everyone’s childhood. But this amazing news is still correct,
And this book will be a sell-out, we bet!
I’ll pause with the corny prose now and share this spectacular, earth-shattering news. Even though the much loved Theodor Seuss Geisel, aka Dr. Seuss, passed away over 20 years ago, his fans were flabbergasted when an unpublished manuscript of his work was recently unearthed.
