The song the Diva sang on stage at Rum Runners was the Peter Gabriel version of “The Book of Love” which includes the lyric, “No one can lift the damn thing.”
When I heard about this I turned to the Rev. Mother and said, “Oh great, we let her out of our sight for the first time and the next thing you know she’s carousing in bars and cursing like a sailor!”
Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy by Eric Metaxas. An insightful and compelling biography of one of the 20th century's greatest minds and spirits, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, from his childhood through his college years and early ministry, on up through WWII and ultimately to his execution by the Nazis. I've read many of Bonhoeffer's works and other books written about him and this one does the best job I've seen in providing interesting details and clear, easy to understand perspective on his life, his relationships with others, how his theology was formed, and his role in a plot to kill Hitler. It is also marvelously written, even novel-like at times. An excellent book for those who would like to know more about Bonhoeffer, and especially for those who think they already do!
Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day.
— Charles Dickens

Were you in San Destin??? Now I am totally homesick.
In the first photo, you look you had been running rum. But you had perked up by photo #6.
I totally want to be wherever that is.
Yes, we were in San Destin! Have you been in the Funky Blues Shack?
Personally, I’m glad you came back.
Awww, thanks Benny!
