Justice Shall Prevail

THE TEXTURE OF OUR
UNIVERSE IS ONE WHERE
THERE IS NO QUESTION
AT ALL BUT THAT GOOD
AND JUSTICE SHALL PREVAIL.

~Archbishop Desmond Tutu

Of Note: Archbishop Tutu will be turning 79 this Thursday and his wife says he will retire on that day. TIME magazine ran a short summary of his career as if he had died saying: "Apartheid scourge evolved into the world's moral compass. As he hangs up his cassock, Desmond Tutu reflects on his life spent defending the oppressed." What are the chances of a defender of the oppressed hanging up their moral compass? I don't think we need to be too worried that such a Fire will discontinue his illumination of the global underbelly even in "retirement." Our hats are off to the Archbishop for his illustrious career but we still need him and wish him a long life.

Today's Weather Report: At 6:45 am it is 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The sun is rising, and fog envelops the land. The landscape looks a bit surreal. I couldn't sleep so got up, let the dogs out and they have trotted off. So here I sit awaiting their return. Darn dogs. It is supposed to be sunshiny all week. If so, it would be the first time in months it did not rain in a week. We will see if the rain pattern continues or not. My bet is on the rain.
