Yesterday my meeting with my guys was the annual Christmas meeting, so the occasion was social rather than work.  I thoroughly enjoyed caroling with around 100 prisoners and a local Adventist choir, that came in to share in the singing.  Even in such an environment, my guys demonstrated more loving  spirit than Supply-side pseudo-Christians can even imagine.  As always, I could not be more proud of them.  Critter sends greetings to Critter.  The prison changed their schedule again, and sadly, this became my only volunteer day this month.  I\u2019m pooped and am returning to bed as soon as I get this up.  I\u2019m current with replies.  Tomorrow is a holy day in the Church of the Ellipsoid Orb, but it has less religious significance for me, because my Broncos have already meditated.<\/font><\/p>\n
