Out of Town for a Few Days
Well, I’ll be in the great Northwest for a few days of over-strong coffee and endless rain. I hear it’s hipper up there though.
I’ll be flying on US Airways. I usually bring my copy of the Benedictine Handbook with me, it’s got a psalter and prayers in it. I’d better be careful though. Apparently, prayer isn’t allowed at US Airways these days.
Here’s something to think about for a bit, since I won’t be posting for a couple of days: what would the uproar be if four protestant ministers were thrown off of a plane? We know that that would never actually happen, which may be why the right wing talkers aren’t mad about this. You can’t get a serious answer to the question “what if the shoe were on the other foot?” when the people you are asking know that the shoe will never fit on that foot.
Chew on that for a while. See you next week.
