An Invocation for Beginnings. Turning the dial from 0 to 1. Ze Frank Is Back!

/

I believe that is the first time I’ve used an ! on a title. I’m not a fan of the over use of !. But this ! is well earned, cause damn it Ze Frank is back. I must have known, in the back of my mind, that he was coming back today, cause over the weekend I could not stop thinking about his old shows, my favorites like long lost friends. I am surprised at how much I missed his verbosity. 

So, do as the man says, and start something.
