story: the morning amy and i moved in we were greeted by our neighbor Leroy, who lives across the street from us. Leroy often sits on his porch and watches over our street. the first thing i observed about Leroy was the long-stem, hand carved pipe he was smoking. he immediately held my interest! over the weeks we've had many brief conversations, but i never mentioned my own pipe smoking tendencies. finally, i drummed up the courage and i said, "Leroy we need to smoke one of these days." we then discussed the beauty of pipes and where to by tobacco in boston. the next day when i got home from work, Leroy was on the porch as usual and he called out, "hey steve, i got something for you." he then produced a bag of cavendish and handed it to me. sweet!
updates: jonathan lethem is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. the fortress of solitude is outstanding. also, while on the topic of books, scot mcknight is quickly becoming one of my favorite theologians.
i love the new coldplay album. i think they get better with each album...a rarity for bands. also, check out amy crawford...our friend in boston (via pacific grove...small world). we got to see her last night.
last, but not least, i finally saw the new batman...creepy...still can't decide if it was such a unique experience because the movie was good or because watching a posthumous performance was so weird.

McKnight is not only an excellent (and prolific) theologian, he's a serious coffee geek... a fine man indeed.
