Jericho
“Sometimes it hurts us more than dying/ To give up what we thought we knew.” That’s one of my favorite lines from one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands. The band is Unsearchable Riches and the song is “Jericho.” (You can find it in iTunes.) It’s a powerful song, lyrically and Continue reading

One of the neatest parts was when they did a song about Martin Luther King’s Jr.’s dream of an integrated nation where children of different races play together. During that Continue reading

How Much Cash You Got On Hand?
Interesting idea! Some company (I can’t remember who–found it online) decided to create a graphic to try to help us grasp the size of our national debt, which is nearly 15 trillion bucks.

Naked in Ocean City
Carolyn just called from the beach, where she took Laura Marie to play this morning. She handed the phone to Laura Marie and said, “Tell Daddy what you see.” And I heard my sweet little two-year-old daughter’s voice saying, “Ha ha, man naked! Ha ha, man naked!” Carolyn said that every time a guy went Continue reading
