It’s not every day that I get to experience a miracle. Or at least that’s what I’m calling it because I don’t know what else to call it. You tell me.

Need a good laugh? Well, since I’ve got Mary Tyler Moore on the brain - I thought I’d share this hilarious 1997 clip with Oprah and Mary.

If you have a smartphone or an iPad, the format of my blog may give you the urge to swipe your monitor to scroll right and left. Or not. I’m a geek. I know.
That’s it. Click around. Let me know what you think.
This is hands-down one of my all-time favorite videos. The music and lyrics are invigorating. The healthcare workers are beyond kewl. And the breast cancer survivors are where it’s at!
Be sure to watch the video in full-screen HD and turn up those speakers.
