DEC 27, defining opinion: hopeful


poetry lyrics:/ Hopeful Holly the optimist's speech:/ "Common goals?
 We've made progress in each./ With continuing luck/ A great deal will be struck --
 / A successful conclusion we'll reach."/ (Not her fault when things halt
 with a screech.)


Authors' Note: There's no denying that Holly the optimist has used a number of cliches in her speech; nor that often (always "unexpectedly") things come to a screeching halt.
