In Case You’re the Kind Who Likes to Keep a Joke Around
I put the Dalai Bama image on a few t-shirts and mugs here. I am not sure, but I think Frank Turk made his millions this way.

My daughter Bekah offers a timely reminder of the kind of thing that can happen on a playground, starting next week sometime.
Two New Books
I have a couple of new books coming out before the end of 08. The first is on what it means to recover a sense of being a “high church Puritan.” The general topic is on the screaming contemporary need for a reformation in theology and liturgics. The second book is entitled Heaven Misplaced, and …
