Rachele definitely get's the point for citing the Spanish Tragedy from the mid 1500s as the first documented case of a play within a play. Upon further research she learned that particular Spanish play influenced Shakespeare, who used the "play within a play" device in Hamlet. Well done, everyone.
Now, we need to get down to the image adorning yesterday's post. Here are two hints as to why I picked that image. One, the people in the image are actors known the world over for playing the Vonn Trapp family. Second hint is: Gwen Stefani.
I hope the regional energy prospectus is going well. I will see you all tonight or tomorrow.

The song "Wind it Up" by Gwen Stefani. She includes some lyrics from the musical "The Sound of Music"'s song "The Lonely Goatherd." I personally think that this is a call-out to the whole energy thing that we're talking about. The song is a mash-up of the old musical featuring the Vonn Trapp Family and the newer pop-music. This is kind of like the mash-up of different energy sources that supplies the U.S. with the electricity that we all love. (Like the mix of coal, hydroelectric, wind, solar, natural gas, petroleum, etc.)
