Profound, but by accident

...so the trouble with dropping a Bible in a river is that, six months later, everyone who looks at it can tell which books you use all the time and which ones you skip over... poor Deuteronomy is feeling a little left out.

And I called a kid this afternoon (nearly saved this for the podcast, but it's a true story) and the call went like this:

Me: Hey, I just called to say happy birthday! (feeling very excited that I'd remembered to check the birthday list on my computer's calendar this morning)

He: Oh, um... it's not my birthday.

Me: (now feeling quite confused because the computer told me so) Is your birthday anywhere near here?

He: No, it's in October.

Me: Oh...

(Long pause)

Me: So what else is going on?
