Watching this again, it almost looks like ancient history. Were we ever that carefree?

But it’s a nice summer spritzer that actually echoes a familiar theme of the gospels: “Be not afraid.” (I’m not sure this is quite what Pope John Paul had in mind when he made that theme so central to his papacy…)

It also features one of my favorite clowns: Bill Irwin, in top hat and tails.

Happy Saturday.
