Busy day

Busy day

Walking the precinct like Caine all day. Please talk amongst yourselves.

Possible topics:

1. Yesterday in church we sang a chorus called "Open the eyes of my heart." Is this a mixed metaphor or is there a more precise term for the cross-breeding of literary devices in that phrase?

2. To what extent has America's automobile culture damaged the idea of the parish in America?

3. As Slate's Fred Kaplan points out, the latest ad from the George W. Bush campaign (the ad with the cute puppies) is full of distortions and misrepresentations. Lying, of course, is a sin. Is it also a sin to reward such lying with one's vote?
