Wednesday Wit & Wisdom

• As I headed out of my Tuesday night St. Ann pastoral council meeting, I got a phone call from a somewhat unexpected source: embattled Kaufman County DA Rick Harrison, who spoke candidly with me about what's going on in his life right now. Look for this week's Herald and Wednesday's Tribune for what he had to say. EDIT: It's up online at The Herald now.

• Sign of the times. Don't twitter in life-death situations.

• We've got an interesting poll on the Tribune site about the Harrison story. Stop by and cast your vote. Scroll down to the bottom to find it.

• Rod Dreher opines about my wife's obsession: Jon and Kate. Link.

• An interesting read. It's an in-depth look at the inner working of Scientology. I have to admit, being a fan of the sci-fi genre, I was never a fan of L. Ron Hubbard's books. That being said, I've always wondered if he started this "religion" on a dare.

• Had a colleague mention the other day that he was tired of hearing about Iran and really didn't care what happened over there. I'm sorry to say, we should care...and here's another disturbing story. Link.
