Happy Guy Fawkes Day -Update

Update to the earlier Guy Fawkes post.

My lovely bride just gave me our copy of The Gunpowder Plot by Hugh Ross Williamson that has been sitting on the bookshelf gathering dust. So I'm going to start reading that tonight in honor of the big day.

It's good timing since I just finished reading Walker Percy's Love in the Ruins (for like the 20th time) last night. That's a very appropriate book for these troubled times (aren't all times pretty much troubled times?)

Today is Library Legislation Day

Sam and the kids make extensive use of the library. Sam takes the little one there for toddler story time, her and the kids check out dozens of books, tapes, cd’s and dvd’s each week. The librarian’s special order books for them, they help them find books and they make recommendations based on my family’s preferences. So for all you librarians out there who help my wife and kids, this is for you.
