Sunday Recap 9-11-2014
Last week, I posted a recap of the points I garnered during the Sunday service, with a pledge to do that every Sunday. I assumed it would be a pretty easy task—just return from Church and type.

Many parliaments would envy the diversity of a bus’ passengers—individuals picked randomly from different points along a route, not held back by party allegiance. Continue reading “The Bus Parliament”
“No Bra Day” – Seriously?
Whew! So this Monday was “No Bra Day”? Despite daily monitoring of global events, I didn’t get to know of this day till the day after. Maybe it’s because it didn’t get to the front pages of the CNN or BBC website (mobile). Continue reading ““No Bra Day” – Seriously?”
