Sorry I haven't posted in a few days. We had our second major fundraiser of the year on Saturday night, so I have been working 'round the clock. The good news is that we had the best banquet we have ever had -- both in terms of fun and financial support. Congressman Don Manzullo came and helped out with a live auction (who woulda thought that a Congressman could be that funny!). By the end of the night, we raised more money that we ever have in 19 years of doing this, and twice as much as we raised the previous year. So an incredible night, even if the week leading up to it was phenomenally taxing.

Hey Greg, I thought the lightning news story was a stitch; and I also agree that the recent kitler is a fine, fine example of a cat that looks like Hitler.

Matt: I totally understand your hesitancy to buy Satinover from the article. I noticed the publication date when I first recommended it. My hope was that in the article, you would see that this guy actually is talking about the validity of scientific pronouncements based upon his analysis of the research methology (and not upon any "faith" he may or may not subscribe to). Anyway, the book is far more up to date and well worth the read when you get the time.

Speaking of reading, I sit for my final comp exam nine days from now. Before than, I have to brush up on "inerrancy/inspiration", "election and the extent of the atonement", "Enlightenment/Postmodern philosophy" and my personal favorite "Christ and Culture" (whatever that means). So if you think about me and you are so inclined, please pray for my exam on the 25th. I am so ready to get this process over with.

Gotta run.
