1. What does it say about my mental state that all I feel like doing is watching old Woody Allen movies and listening to Warren Zevon?
2. There is more to crisis management than burying people with e-mails about the crisis.
3. I can scarcely imagine what line workers in the auto industry are going through right now, but “God’s bailout” has nothing to do with their industry.
4. Being the only person that visits someone in the hospital sucks for both of us.
5. Number four makes theology papers seem totally irrelevant.
6. Profound thought that escapes some people: I can’t call you if I don’t have your phone number.
7. Finally, a wall calendar I can share with my Mormon friends!
8. So today this retired guy in front of me in the checkout line at the grocery store had 17 cans of corn in the bottom of his cart. I could tell that he was a seasoned purchaser of large quantities of canned goods. He kept inquiring if the cashier wanted to count and she kept saying it was fine. He was insistent. His wife just wanted a bunch of plastic bags to put the corn in. I could tell that they have had an exciting life together.
9. I don’t watch NBC at 10:00pm now and it looks like I won’t be any time soon. I’d rather listen to Hall and/or Oates five hours a week.

And I know how it feels about #4. Well, I wasn’t the only one, but my family was the only one.
oh and the Mormon calendar thing made my day!
Man, how do they fit all the people on Dave’s tiny little stage?
BTW Going to see David Letterman with you was one of the highlights of my time in seminary.
Watching Bruce Willis jump into the “Will it Float” tank and listening to that weird European singer was definitely grand! I am glad we did it!
