Yes, I know the 2009 Daytime Emmy Awards Winners have been revealed.  I categorically disagree with the winner of the 2009 Daytime Emmy Best Drama Award.  Obviously, someone made a mistake; for the Young and the Restless is dramatic realism at its best.  The Y & R story threads are carefully woven with exciting twists and turns and always chock-full of lessons to learn.  My Effervesce Award visual poetry was created to eternally honor the Young and the Restless as the number one soap opera of all time.

Dear diary, Bernie Mac’s brand of comedy was uniquely entertaining.  And, while many suffer during the tough economical times, his comedy routines were and always will be pure medicine for the soul.   Bernie Mac’s comedy was a definite remedy to lighten, any load.  Without a doubt, Bernie Mac left his mark on this Earth and his comic star will shine for an eternity. 

Dear diary, the death of Bernie Mac has profoundly influenced the subject matter of my future blogs.  My poetry has always been written to enlighten and encourage, not placing steady focus on specific people.  Yes, as planned, I will create the 2009 Presidential Poetic Portrait.  But, from this day forward, I will concentrate on, we the people of America.  Just as Patti La Belle sings in Oh, People; “There will be no sides to take, if we can’t change the course we’re own.” “Apart we are weak, together we’re strong.”  Godspeed, Bernie Mac, Godspeed!!!
