I just came upon what looks to be a very cool tracking site.
It operates much like Geocaching, except for instead of hunting for treasures, one can hunt for books. If I am correct, instead of throwing away books they no longer wish to keep, book owners can place their book somewhere to be “found” by another person. The cool part is the tracking—you can see where in the world your book goes! Very, very cool.
If Reading Makes you Smart…… (Brian Regan)
What Good is God? by Philip Yancey
I am a fan of Philip precisely because he is willing to ask the hard questions; he asks the questions that I so often find running through my own mind. In his latest work, Yancey poses the question “What Good is God?” He then seeks the answer through reviewing a wide sample of trips he has taken in the past few years. His eclectic gathering of stories from such a wide variety of places lends credo to the answer to the question. From prostitutes to college students, to South Africans, addicts and other populations, his interview style and his openness about his own doubts and assurances about God give the reader much to think about. Thank you, Mr. Yancey, for once again being transparent with your own soul, so that your readers are more apt to be transparent with their souls before God.

Two More Days of School. We can do this, we can do this.
The Daily Press offers some links to some free activities for kids to keep them occupied. I intend to take Bethany, my resident nerd, to sign up for the summer reading programs at the bookstores. Immediately.
