I enjoyed reading about the Nigerians who are doing so well in Scrabble. I enjoy the game, but not competitively. It's a fun way to exercise my brain, if I can find someone to play with.
The articles about Christianity were interesting and convicting. Lots to think about, and pray about.
I loved the Lego creations! Amazing! I'm going to email that to my son; he loved Legos as a child, and still plays with them sometimes! (He's 43.)
Sad about how the welfare "reforms" have hurt people.
Thank you!
43? Why not?
