What Do I Have In Common With Lou Holtz?

It’s our birthday today!

And my favorite poem just happens to be written by another January 6th-er.

I asked the professors who teach the meaning of life to tell me what is happiness.
And I went to famous executives who boss the work of thousands of men.
They all shook their heads and gave me a smile as though I was trying to fool with them
And then one Sunday afternoon I wandered out along the Desplaines river
And I saw a crowd of Hungarians under the trees with their women and children
and a keg of beer and an accordion.

~Carl Sandburg



Happy Epiphany everyone!
