TAKE #4: NO, BUT TAKE #5: POSTING SUCCESS AT LAST!!! I don’t think this is permanent though…!

Anyway, events have taken a turn for the annoying, and so I will not be posting substantive stuff until tomorrow or possibly Friday. However, I have a bunch of fun stuff saved up for you (everything from vouchers to beauty), and I’ve also got a big, fat mailbag full of emails to which I will reply.

For now: Blogadder on his experiences stamping and/or losing visas; Ted Barlow is badgering away at the Harken mess which I won’t even pretend to understand; Amy Welborn on how the laity might (and might not) help the Church, and a great, multi-blog discussion of suffering that starts here , and her response to Rod Dreher’s “granola conservatives” thing is just awesome. And read the comments for all of those (for both Barlow and Welborn).

OK, gotta run, more later.
