Hail to the Chief
Last episode of the West Wing. Tears. All the best to President Santos as he takes office. Nine inaugural balls! After Soul Survivor, I’m planning to watch every single episode of every season (156 in total) back to back before the start of term. Stay tuned for the Great West Wing Marathon. “What’s next?“

Photos
I’ve uploaded my photos from Italy to the gallery. They’re divided into four galleries. Sermon last night went pretty well although I was a little long (32 minutes by my reckoning). Will write-up the holiday soon.

Whoops!
When I powered off my mail server before going away, I somehow didn’t consider the possibility of a 12hr (or whatever time scale) timeout on mail delivery. It seems I’ve lost all mail for the week. If you emailed Amanda or me during that time, would you please resend it? Holiday notes coming real soon, …

Verbification
Jeff:As usual great to hear things from the horse’s mouth as it were, but just wanted to respond to what you’ve said. This is in no particular order and entirely off the top of my head. You say that people aren’t interested so much in the kernel but more in the services provided. I agree …
