JILL IS #1!

There you go, the prize for getting and mentioning the Fine Young Cannibals is getting your name emblazened across the blog. Now, all the cool kids said they already knew it but Jill was the first to say it, so stick it cool kids!

Few thoughts on an incredible week:
The bad: Snipers, looting, stupidity, death, destruction, politicizing.
The good: Churches getting invovled, volunteers by the thousands, generosity of American people, and thousands saved.

I heard a story the other day told by a comic writer name Gail Simone. She told the story of how someone purposely poisioned their family dog and how upset her young son was by the event. Fellow comic writer Mark Waid heard about the boy and sent him every Heroclix figure ever made at the cost of hundreds of dollars. (Heroclix is a game played with hundreds of little superhero action figures of which many are heavily valued on the collectors market.) Along with all these little hero figures he attached this note: "Remember, there are still more heros in this world than villians."
I hope and pray we proveMark right.

How hard was it for you to write the title of today's blog?? I am going to print this blog and frame it.
