A La Carte (09/18)

Monday September 18, 2006

Books: Derek Thomas has an glowing review of J.I. Packer’s latest book “Praying.” Somehow this one escaped my attention but it looks like one I may need to add to my reading list.

Abortion: FoxNews has an article about a new strategy used by pro-life organizations: buy the properties being used by clinics and then deny them the ability to renew their leases on the premises.

Humor: Carolyn McCulley has a Monday morning laugh waiting for you at her site.

Humor Bonus: I’ve been waiting months and months for the Thirsty Theologian to actually post a joke that was funny in his “Saturday Stupidity” column. And finally he has done it.
