Notes from the Desk

You might wonder why some of my posts seem to interrupt themselves, like I'm trying to get chucked out of my own talk. Reader. Trust.

These things would only ever happen in church or in a crisis. (Like Tom Hanks with an ice skate — needs must. Sometimes. Other times it's inappropriate, dangerous, outrageous and misguided.) Hence my new fancy word, ship-wreck-less-ons. The kind of things any one of us might learn in Chapter Seventeen.

Doesn't everyone have two draining boards? No? Well, that's okay. Contemporary systems seem to flatten our natural urges. Hang on. That may be more important.
