Thanks Bob. I don't aim to convert anyone, though I will pray for you. ;-)
I'll give yours a look on the morrow.

I liked your October post a lot.. but I am still a Republican.. I think :(
I posted my best of 2007 here.

I'm pretty sure I got the better end of the deal.
You just give me a holler and I'll buy you the best cuppa joe in our fair state.

Bro, I'm glad you got as much out of the cross-blogging as I did.
Hope your new year is off to a great start! Maybe we'll have some more good discussions this year.
I'm determined to make it down your way soon. Just trying to see how my semester schedule is fleshing out to figure out what options I have.
