Carol of the Bells” (also known as the “Ukrainian Bell Carol“) is a choral miniature work originally composed by the Ukrainian composer Mykola Dmytrovych Leontovych. Throughout the composition, Leontovych used a four note motif as an ostinato which was taken from an ancient pagan Ukrainian New Year’s chant known in Ukrainian as “Shchedryk” [the Generous One]. The composer created the piece as an assignment for a harmony course he was taking by correspondence in the use of an ostinato. The original work was intended to be sung a cappella by mixed choir. Two other variants of the composition; one for woman’s choir and another for children’s choir with piano accompaniment were also created by the composer.

Potential GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee says Sarah Palin’s wrong and Michelle Obama’s right, at least when it comes to the first lady’s push to combat childhood obesity.
“With all due respect to my colleague and friend Sarah Palin, I think she’s misunderstood what Michelle Obama is trying to do,” the former Arkansas governor said Tuesday on the “Curtis Sliwa Show.”

Come on, Huck! The bitch is dumb as dirt. She doesn’t read, can’t name a major newspaper, scribbles on her hand, doesn’t know Africa is a continent & pokes fun at education. How the fk do you expect said hillbilly trash to suddenly comprehend what Flotus is doing?
BWA HA HA HA You always call it like it is, SG2.
Happy HUMP day, Everybody! :-)
