Sunrises and Opera

The sunrise this morning on the way to Arlington was the best I've seen. It lasted from 6:45 until I got home at 8:30. While driving, I was composing in my mind how I intended to describe the progression of colors, and how God shares His glory with creation in contrast to condemning clouds for getting in the way of the sun, etc. But the most prevalent association that kept plaguing my mind was that famous Ziggy cartoon where his round bald head looks out over the cliff at the cartoony sunset and says, "Yay, God". It's kind of like not being able to get Bugs Bunny out of your head when you hear Rossini's The Barber of Seville. Oy Veh.
