Happiness is Braddah Iz singin' "Somewhere Over The Rainbow"

Here.

Happiness is knowing where to plant what

The north is a noier to grass of all suits,

The east a destroyer to herbs and all fruits.

-- Thomas Tusser

Happiness is the 1996 gem "Luigi's Welcome" sung by Jerry Hadley

Here.

The song is from the film, The Adventures of Pinocchio, and is adapted from the 1880 Neapolitan song "Funiculi, Funicula".

The sun . . . she's like-a the luscious yellow cherry, without the pit, without the pit

The day . . . so bright and extraordinary, so welcome it, so welcome it!

My wife . . . she sparkles like a ray of sunlight, she smiles at me, she smiles at me

A queen . . .  to grace the morning with her yawning, and I her king, and you her king!

Welcome! Welcome! Blessed morning sun . . .

The dawn . . . she's breaking all across the valley, here comes the sun, here comes the sun

The dawn . . . she sang Wake Up Everybody! the day's begun, the day's begun

The bells . . . they're ringing loudly in the steeple, they ring for me, they ring for me!

This town . . . has got a lot of friendly faces, to sing with me, to sing with me! . . .

 

 

Not happiness exactly: Paint It Black by The Rolling Stones

1966, here.

Happiness is low-sodium Cento San Marzano tomatoes in the BIG MOTHER 90 oz. can

This one big can yields 10 cups + of smooth sauce through my press.

And only 20 mg sodium per half cup!

It's fabulous!

Happiness is Cento extra virgin olive oil in the 3-liter can

Filippo Berio raised its prices enough recently for me to try Cento.

And you know what? Cento is better!

Happiness is filing income taxes with TurboTax . . . eleven years in a row

And to think I did it with paper and pencil before that. Perish the thought! 

Happiness is John Prine singing "Dear Abby"

Here.

Happiness was flying Economy Class . . . in the 1960s

Happiness is reading the Bible like General George S. Patton

Every . . . . . . . day.

Here.

Happiness is a Joey Bag O' Donuts

Here.

Goodbye WLUP.

Happiness is Tiangong-1 impact in the Pacific Ocean, not in my backyard
