Ever since I was first elected, I've wanted to lead the invocation but have never had the opportunity until now. So I thank the Speaker and the Clerk's office for letting me do so today. As we deal with what is probably the most difficult fiscal crisis since statehood and other issues that cause us to worry and disagree among ourselves, I ask the members just to look outside. If the Page would open the door, we can see a sky with nary a cloud on a truly marvelous Juneau, Alaska day. 2003-05-19 House Journal Page 1914 Let's put things in perspective and see what's right with the world, and that the world really is continuing to spin "on greased grooves." Lord, let us give thanks to You for this marvelous day and for the gifts of humor and love, as well as the creative urge that allows each of us to give added value to the world in which we live. I'd like to close with the words from a little song that won the Oscar in 1947. It's a song filled with the love of life: Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay My, oh my what a wonderful day! Plenty of sunshine heading my way Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay Mister Bluebird's on my shoulder It's the truth, it's actual Everything is satisfactual Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay Wonderful feeling, wonderful day! Thank You, Lord, for this day and for our friendship and for Alaska. Let us all say together, Amen. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Representative Gruenberg. **The presence of Representative Guttenberg was noted.
