THIS IS WHO WE ARE

This is what we do for the joy of the King,
For His peaceable Kingdom,
For a world in despair.
And this is why we bring any hope we can give,
Any bread from the table,
Any touch of His hand.
This is what we do.
This is where we go.
This is why we sing.
This is how we live.
This is who we are.

Scary Scary Scary - Little House Meets Twilight Zone

Just getting ready to go to the gym.  Thought I'd check email/blog.  Good Morning, America is on. They're interviewing the "women-folk" of that polygamist ring in Texas.  
I heard a couple of them on radio news yesterday, but seeing them made it twice as weird.  They really look like extras on LITTLE HOUSE, wearing plain-colored prairie dresses, with their hair up in carefully-crafted buns.  And they sound like cliche cinema psycho killers when they talk: that whispery, velvety, totally-in-control voice quality that makes me tremble like a frightened dog.  This IS the 21st century, right?

Off to the gym to see normal folks in their smelly sweatsuits.
