** Then there's the story about the opera loving Russian peasant who is asked about his family. Understanding that although in Italian opera the hero is always the tenor, in Russian opera the hero is more often the bass, the peasant replies, "Ah, about my family. Yes, I have three sons and a tenor..."
Behold I have created the smith that
bloweth the coals in the fire. (Isa 54:16 KJV)
