Neuhaus's Law

 .           Where orthodoxy is optional,
  .                     orthodoxy will sooner or later be proscribed.








                                                              Fr.  Richard John Neuhaus












an ardent catholic pilgrim convert from Lutheranism

it's all nurture, really

I don't think the other teams
             expected us to be as tough as we were,
                               and fast and strong and aggressive.




                                    Kortnee Walton  -   speaking for her Illinois
                                                                    5th grade girls basketball        
                                                                         team   which regularly
                                                                      demolishes the boys teams

found poem

.....I lifted this from a junk mail advertisement for watches
---high-end watches....I've been wrestling with the notion of text::
..::what constitutes a text?
and.... would a robot be able to ask the question:: what constitutes a text?
