This and That

It's been too long since I freshened things up in here...and too long since I updated you. So here we go! Be sure to check out Alexander, where you can really get into the devotionals by famous and not-so-famous Christian authors. I love them all, but let me recommend my Delayed Gratification post. Those of you in Alcoholics Anonymous or any type of recovery...or maybe even considering trying to kick an addiction should check it out!

The Scrooge Report is still rocking! Here's some highly recommended reading:
• The First Educated Opposition to Obama
