Alvin

I love consistency. Even though I like change, sometimes familiar things are just as good. Today, as I was watching TV, a familiar voice started to sing. It was none other than Alvin. The Chipmunk. Even though I am not a kid, I started to smile when I heard him singing a Lady Gaga song. Somehow, the world has never gotten tired of the Chipmunks. They must be around for about 50 years, but they are still cute and entertaining. They have grown from flat cartoon images to animated characters that mix in with real people. Just hearing their high pitched squeaky voices is funny. They can be saying the most serious thing, but when it is said as a chipmunk we all laugh. It is nice to know that in today's world, where there is so much uncertainty and unhappiness, we can still count on Alvin to brighten things up.
