Tribute To A Snake Charmer

Here is something I've written for a very special and wonderful friend, Stuart V. Goldberg.  This was originally going to be a post for his Facebook wall, but it was too long for that, so I'm placing it here and linking back to it...

It's Discovery Day, and I would love for Stuart to discover a lot of positive strokes on his wall whenever he gets around to coming over here, so let's pitch in and create a real treasure for this real treasure of a guy.  I'll go first.

There are so many reasons to love Stuart, but I believe the main one is how hopeful and positive he is.  When he goes to court, he places bright colors here and there on his lawyer suits--which are, often, brightly-colored, themselves.

I assume that his glasses are prescription glasses, but he goes the route of wearing ones that are very cool--and even a little goofy.

Having a day in court isn't easy for anybody, so it's nice when there's a lawyer in the courtroom who is adding sunshine and rainbows to the mix--and it's also important that said lawyer knows what he's doing and is dedicated to bringing about the best outcome for each case, whether it's winning the case when the people aren't guilty or helping the people to start seeing the winners that they could be even if they are.

In Stuart's eyes, even totally-guilty people deserve better than simply being locked away and forgotten about, so he helps to bring about solutions that are positive for everybody involved.

When it comes to the entire city of Chicago, the Chicago justice system, and individuals--in fact, well beyond the borders of The Windy City, Stuart V. Goldberg is truly a snake charmer:  somebody who acts as a standard and moral compass without being holier-than-thou in a world in need of direction!

Let's give a big round of applause for our snake charmer!

His movie IS going to become a major hit right up there with Gone With The Wind!!!

I'm looking forward to The Ides Of March!!! (Even though I'm definitely not wishing away the time between now and then, because this is one of my very favorite times of the year!).
