My word of the day ..posted this morning in the Unusual Word group ..was “quirky” which I think perfectly describes this Aussie actor, songwriter and comedian. He is also a very vocal atheist and pulls no punches in his swipes and mockery of religion. Here he sings the very accurate and very sweary - Pope Song, accompanied by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra….Brilliant!

I adore Tim Minchin! His White Wine in the Sun is one of my favorite Christmas songs, and I think his 9 Life Lessons speech was the best advice I've ever heard:

I love him too….this is brilliant! Thank you for posting it!
@Marionville You're quite welcome! Thank you for reminding me about him - I'm now listening to my list of his YouTube videos while working, and laughing a lot.
This was marvelous! Thanks so much for sharing! I’m a new fan!!
@Redheadedgammy I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I think he's a joy.
@Lauren I agree completely! He’s quite a good communicator!!! 
White Wine In The Sun is one of my favorites as well.
Gloriously cheeky. An expression I will not allow to pass my lips. But the pope is being reluctant to appologise for the horrendous behaviour of his priests in Canada's residential schools.Getting 13 year olds pregnant and chucking the baby into the boiler.
