*I think this lyric is simultaneously pretty clever, a bit funny, but overall very sad.
*Heather likes this line a lot.

*Faulker is certainly not my favorite author, but he was a master of the American short story and is still an important influence. Will write more about him on this blog. Can’t say exactly when though….
*Miranda Lambert is one of the most talented musicians today. That girl is the real deal. Will ABSOLUTELY write more about her on this blog. Can’t say exactly when though….
I pray that you, as one abused or one who has caused it, will act now to avail yourself of the healing power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ. I testify that your faith and obedience will assure that He will help you.
