In this corner of the ring…

1. September 2010

Good googledy moogledies’ Patti took on the Washington Post’s Sally Quinn in a 12 round bout. A real barn burner of a match, Patti was the clear winner by decision… and she didn’t have to resort to low blows or kidney shots to win, just clear, reasoned thinking. I kind of miss boxing.

Tenacity is not one of my strengths

If the Wizard of Oz had given me resolve while he was passing out brains and hearts I’d be able to comment on some tightly secured blogs. The path of least resistance is no where near the highway of one blog I love, written by a highly witty woman who makes me laugh. I get [...]

Patti, you really need a nickname! It was a real pleasure to share some good Italian food with great people. And, maybe dispel some rumors… [...]

Shakey Pete’s lovely wife Linda Lou fell and broke her leg. The ensuing surgery was successful, but as is often the case after something of this nature, Linda Lou is feeling low and needs to be lifted up to our Lord in prayer – not just for the offended limb, but her spirits as well. [...]
