    "Around the corner I have a friend, In this great city that has no end; Yet days go by, and weeks rush on, And before I know it a year is gone, And I never see my old friend's face, For life is a short and terrible race... Tomorrow, I say, I will call on Jim, Just to show that I'm thinking of him. ...read more

    The setting is the front of a small church. The pastor says from the pulpit, ‘I’ve misplaced my sermon notes, so I’m just going to read from this devotional—if I can find it here.

We go to “church.” I saw a commercial recently about a new type of veneer for your teeth that is supposed to be the best yet. What I thought was incredibly ...read more
