Finally watched The Promised Land on YouTube. Pretty good Bible humor with little lessons thrown in.

Wrote to a friend in Uganda this morning. Told her we are feeling very sad about the budget vote -o-lies and that we'll do what we can to support the most vulnerable victims of it. Happy Fourth of July. #nokings
