Humor: Summer reading.

Books: “TIME” has an excerpt from Al Gore’s upcoming book “The Assault on Reason.” The book is described as “A visionary analysis of how the politics of fear, secrecy, cronyism, and blind faith has combined with the degration of the public sphere to create an environment dangerously hostile to reason.”

People: JT links to the announcement that Dr. White has resigned as president of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.

Quote: Tim’s daughter commenting on a startling discovery: “Whatever I eat, my burps smell like that. Really!”
