Pot pourri

To Tony "The Gent" Pinnochio: No one was available to talk to, and Carl will have to pass on your messages for a few days.  Just be nice to him and remember he's English so give him respect! Hopefully we'll solve it soon.


To Carl: Interesting piece on Bono (including references to Springsteen) in latest issue of "By Faith" (the PCA magazine).

To Ligon: my wife says, "What's Ligon doing blogging when he's supposed to be on vacation?" Wives!  Blogging is vacation! I filled in for you today, discovering thirty minutes before the first service that I'd prepared next week's sermon instead of the one printed in the bulletin! Horrors! I even thought of changing at that late stage but don't tell my students. 

Missed you greatly. Some mice played hooky (or is that hookie?) when the cat's away! You know me: always counting numbers! Enjoy the week at the beach.
