With ideaCity only a short time away,
I write you now on the eleventh of May,
We’ve got five new presenters to introduce,
All are captivating, all will seduce.
Jacob Abrahamse is a child soprano,
A voice more powerful than a grand piano.
Luminato has him in an operatic must-see,
Set during the Crusades, 13th century.
Jacob plays the hero in this tour de force,
We only present the very best, of course.
To save the world with love, is his task quite gigantic.
I wish him well; I love a romantic.
Ron Weinland is coming, lo and behold.
He speaks of end-times that will soon unfold.
His conversation is fiery, potentially traumatic,
For those not into things cataclysmatic.
2008 was The Pivotal Year,
The beginning of the end; his warnings severe.
God’s Final Witness lays out his claim,
That WWIII will set the world aflame.
Billions will die, Christians, Muslims and Jews,
Believe or not, these are his views.
When Scott Cassell was just a kid,
He dreamed of filming a giant squid!
Not a Disney creation or the Dr. Seuss kind,
But more like the demon one might find
At the bottom of the ocean, so deep and so blue
The most horrible squid one might construe.
Fifty feet long with three beating hearts,
A killer that thrives on its predator smarts.
Scott knew it existed but how to get close
To this fierce mollusk in plain divers’ clothes?
So he constructed an armour-plated diving suit
And to the bottom he dove, hot in pursuit.
Almost got devoured by 24,000 teeth
But lived to tell the tale of his adventure beneath.
Author Eric Siblin is lovely and mellow,
Just like the sound of a beautiful cello,
But Eric was not always a prolific musician
Took it up in adulthood by his own volition.
Then wrote a book called The Cello Suites
About Bach and Casals and a Baroque Masterpiece.
If you’re into Bach’s music, as I am you know
You can listen everyday, all day, on my radio
The New Classical 96.3 on your dial
For Bach and Beethoven and a little Kurt Weil.
Or attend ideaCity, where you will hear
Musical excerpts and Siblin’s premiere.
Architectural excellence and urban design,
Are two concepts that drive our old pal Les Klein.
I’ve worked with this Quadrangle Founder forever,
He also loves baseball, and is really quite clever.
I guess that’s why we get along, not to mention his abilities
To build new media and broadcast facilities.
Now he’s focused on the Gardiner, TO’s eternal pariah,
We look forward to his solution, hallelujah!
But here’s the moment where you must take charge,
Buy a ticket now, your discount will still be large.
Make the wise choice, be strong, be bold….
Help me prove that tickets can be poetically sold…
Costs a fraction of conferences like EG or TED,
50 amazing speakers, hosted by MZ.
Treat yourself to this brain-camp, it’s ‘the bomb’!
