This a long overdue shout out to RiverStone. She is a thoughtful woman of faith, struggling day by day to build some meaning in this mixed-up world. She isn't like me at all, but her posts often touch something in me and spark reverie. RiverStone is one of those who wrestle with the angel - and she's terrified about what it might mean to win or to lose. I know it isn't any comfort that the match will last a lifetime, but it is easier to get up every time you're thrown if there are others to give you a hand. Go, give her a hand.

Tex of UnFairWitness has been shipping me readers on a regular basis for a couple of months. I've got way fewer than he does, but all of you should go over there and get angry. At what, whether the war, the warriors, tex, or me, is up to you. Tex is two-fisted, so once you're in his world, you're on your own.
