I don’t know if you heard about this story.  Now here is part two.  I agree with Dustin’s thoughts on the situation.
Drudge is where I get all my news info.  Great for during the political conventions which no one seems to be watching.

Here’s the dealio…
1.  The medicine that is supposed to make me sleepy has actually kept me up 3 of the 4 nights I’ve taken it, but I haven’t felt tired or anything and my cough is slowly getting better.
2.  We had two amazing services yesterday.  God is moving.  He is already working.  The New Orleans [...]
