I feel like I'm gonna get so much use out of this.

As if my day wasn't messed up enough already, whatever happened with the washer from the break-in Tuesday night doesn't seem to be fixed. They got the coin slot working well enough to steal my $2, though.

It's been really, really nice seeing the Catholic social justice tradition in the US feel like it's empowered to spread its wings again without risking censure after a long time of being suppressed by US Catholic leadership, and it's exactly what I was hoping for from Pope Bob.

I took my dad to see the Irish Tenors once. I would have been pretty shocked to see the blue hairs in that audience throwing down.

The Peace Award goes to Natisha Hiedeman.

She turned C-Will from fighter to StudBud. She temporarily eased player tensions with Cathy through the power of dance. She kept Coach Reeve from possible manslaughter charges in Phoenix. She let DiJonai glam her up. Natisha is our warrior for peace.
