Let's face it: Even the most optimistic amongst us will admit these are pretty stressful times. As I write this, the coronavirus pandemic is sweeping across the world, forcing people to stay in their homes, while the economy craters at a speed we have not seen in our lifetimes. It's a moment when we all need something to brighten our spirits, to make us laugh at the clouds (so dark) up above.
We need Gene Kelly "Singin' in the Rain."
