Some of you get these entries sent to you via email (ala Feedburner). For reasons beyond me, the most recent entries are not coming through with any links embedded. I have no idea why and will work to try and figure it out. Sorry for the inconvenience. It’s Memorial Day weekend, and so my thoughts […]
Read MoreWe watch MSNBC for most of our news these days. We watch it each primary night for hours. We were drawn to MSNBC because of Keith Olbermann and “Countdown.” But I’m not even going to mention him here. Because what we’ve come to love about their shows is the smartness of all of their pundits….folks […]
Read MoreSpeaking of my favorite podcasts, I haven’t mentioned “Art and Soul” lately. This is really a shame, since many of the guests the past year have been close friends. If you haven’t heard of “Art and Soul of North Texas,” it’s a podcast created by my friend, Shelly Niedbuhr –quite an accomplished artist herself– that […]

In the modern era, it’s been revived by NPR and independent producer, Jay Allison. I listen to it faithfully, via podcast, and I highly recommend the series to you.

Read MoreThe Judge will be going into a Presbyterian Hospital on Wednesday, for surgery to remove an ovarian cyst. She’s expected to be there there until at least through Friday, possibly Saturday. Please pray for Dennise, the surgeons and staff, and Maria and me. More later, after we’re home…and probably no other entries for some days…EF […]

Read MoreAs I alluded to briefly, earlier this week the General Conference of the United Methodist Church has been meeting in Fort Worth for the past two weeks. I’ve been there almost every day of those two weeks, primarily supporting a cause near and dear to the heart of many in our church: full inclusion of […]
Read MoreTonight, Dennise and Maria were watching TV, and some clips of Rev. Jeremiah Wright came on from his National Press Club appearance last night. Among other things, these were clips where he was again blaming the government for AIDS, and calling American soldiers terrorists. The following is a mostly verbatim transcription of the conversation that […]
