My favorite early Chicken Marsala sketch was of an angel delivering Chicken to his new assignment on earth. The angel says, "Get in there, champ! You can do it!" And a very resistant Chicken cries in desperation, "But they are BOTH artists!" Kerri and I are artists with all that term implies. Passionate opinions. Quirky (okay...volatile). Often in need of a perspective-giver. What Chicken didn't know is that the two artists in his assignment, namely Kerri and me, are great soothers of each other's storms. We have the gift of never ranting at the same time. When one of us becomes a rocket, the other becomes grounded earth. There is a beautiful equal-and-opposite equation, too. When one of us enters into a creative high, it pulls the other up.

Chicken had a great assignment and just needed to look beyond the wrapper. That angel knew what she was doing.
