Happy MLK Day!

Dear Meredyth...
The morning finds me...barely. I spent the night writing a paper but I hesitate in naming it...one never knows who may be reading this stuff. Today the temps feel lower but whether they are or not is any one's guess. It's grand having a week off before classes begin again so I'll try to write another paper (what is it with all the papers?) and write some letters before I leave for NC on Saturday. I'm going to the Anglican Mission conference in Greensboro and I know you said you could take me to the airport but Sarah's going to do that instead. So please cross me off your to-do-list for this Saturday.
Newspaper News...Since you've been away there's been a great tragedy in Haiti where a massive earthquake devastated many lives. The world is coming together once again to offer support and prayers. As you're aware the newspaper is filled with the stories of those involved. On a lighter note Brett Favre is on a nearly perfect role. Last night they played the Cowboys in a playoff game and the Vikings won 34-3. "Favre slammed the door on those who doubted he could succeed again." So there's one more hurray for all us old people over 40!
The Golden Globes graced the front cover with big wins for the movie Avatar, and actors Jeff Bridges and Sandra Bullock. But the best news was in the Business section where we learned that Harry and Mary Schaff are opening a Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory in Delafield! We can walk to the chocolate now and who knows...maybe the sweet aroma will find it's way into our classroom and wake us up during #!!*&*#!!! (like I said...you just never know who's reading this stuff). I spoke with Carrie last night and I think they may be taking you in for a body wash today or tomorrow so as always you remain in the prayers of many...including me.
