Monday, September 15 - What the Deuce?

"La Mariée", or The Bride, is a famous piece by Marc Chagall, which features a bride with a long, white, silky veil and red dress. Beside her is the well-renowned Goat Orchestra, performing at the wedding. There appears to be a squirrel underneath the cello used by the goat, perhaps holding it up or being used as the slip stop for the cello. Beside the goat is the great green beret flautist of the twentieth century, a perfect addition to any wedding. Of course, in the top right resides the fish with arms holding a lit match in one hand and  the leg of a chair in the other, he needs a good spot to see the action. To the right of him is what looks like buildings next door, all watching the wedding with open windows. Behind the bride is her father ready to pass her off. But who is the groom? Take a real hard look at reality and realize that it is in fact, you, who is the groom. All these squirrels and goats and fish are here to witness you marry La Mariée, her beauty unmatched by anyone else in your heart. The way she is looking into your eyes is true love, what are you waiting for?
