From the Lighter Side

Wednesday night was the last of the three presidential debates, held in our neighborhood -- Tempe, Arizona. Of course, the price of admission would pay off the mortgage for the church... I missed the live telecast, as we were in church for the Vigil for the feast of the Protection of the Theotokos; and, I must say, what I saw of the replays brought little or no joy. The difficulty in determining what to do, and who to vote for, has become very tiring.

A friend sent this in an email, and it seems to sum things up quite well; at least, from where I am right now: If God had wanted us to vote, He'd have given us candidates.

This is probably the last time I'll blog until after the clergy conference (in Denver) concludes on Wednesday...
