If you watched the opening ceremony of the Olympics on NBC hosted by Bob Costas, please tell me if you also felt like Bob was on several occasions speaking condescendingly of the more obscure nations with few participants. It was like he couldn’t wait for them to parade on by and get off the screen. Anyways…

Ralph Lauren did a great job with the American parading outfit: white trousers, navy sports coat and white beret. Very smart. Very American. Well done.

Proud of Ralph, less of Bob.

…ordering one of my required textbooks for a seminary class from a popular online retailer, I notice that the first line of the book is the following:

“I did not plan to be a heretic. It just happened.”

Great! Let’s go Fall 2008: The Year Seminarians Become Heretics Unawares.
