"I'm what the world considers to be a phenomenally successful man. And I've failed much more than I've succeeded. And each time I fail, I get my people together, and I say, "Where are we going?" And it starts to get better." - Calvin Trager
Today is tedious paperwork catch-up day, so I'm watching Season Five of 24 while I pound away at financials and other stuff. This time, it's cannisters of nerve gas that Jack Bauer & co. are trying to prevent being spritzed all over L.A. And that's just today.

"Christ's example is being
demeaned by the church if they ignore the new leprosy,
which is AIDS. The church is the sleeping giant here.
If it wakes up to what's really going on in the rest
of the world, it has a real role to play. If it doesn't,
it will be irrelevant."
