While I enjoy my radio Bible study, the pastor and I don’t always agree. So I was tickled the other morning, when he’d been annoying me, to switch to music after the broadcast and immediately hear John Denver’s song “Late Night Radio”, with my favorite line,
“The Lord is still my Shepherd, but that preacher’s gotta go.”

Mr. President:
At this time, we are unable to approve allocation of funds to build your arch, due to the cost of the conflict with Iran.

Cardboard boat races—I love ’em.
You get to watch people who have constructed boats out of cardboard and duct tape—and who have decorated them beautifully—paddle across a swimming pool, and see whose boat holds up and who wins.
Truthfully, I go as much for the decorations as the action, but they’re always fun to watch.
The last time, it was a little different. In the last race, one boat fell apart before they even got started—it had to be fished out of the pool in pieces. So one little guy had the field all to himself. But they let him get in his boat and paddle his little heart out to get to the other side, and the crowd cheered him on.
That is the definition of being sporting.
