Experimenting

UPDATE!

Ok, it didn’t take long to figure this one out — why my page (and others) appear to have gone whacky. If you are looking at this site and find that the blog is “exploded” with items in wrong places or if you scroll down the right hand column and see RELATED ARTICLES with noting [...]

Those who were kind enough to respond to the post (now deleted) regarding confusion about two web sites, and another’s, that shared the same general topic (Christian Mystics) and echoed my template, thank you.

“Maybe the drunks will just run over the homeless and solve both problems.”
Sgt. Sam, KLBJ Radio 3/27/08

Some Favorite Quotes

Everybody who stops by here knows it’s no secret that I have a great admiration for Frederick Bueckner.
