Not impressed with messy Samuel Clemens

Okay, so we're backwards in Arkansas. This off my home county history site:

Daulton was a member of a prominent family of Northeast Arkansas newspapermen and started several newspapers, including the Democratic Press at Gainesville in 1879 and the News at Gainesville in 1898. He apprenticed with Sam Clemens in the printshop of the Hannibal, Mo. Union, and later said "Sam Clemens could get more ink on him for the amount of work he did than any man I ever saw. Mark Twain sent me a copy of all his books, but I was not particularly impressed by any of them."
My cousin Sandy keeps up the county's historical page. Even has a shot of my grandfather and his twin.

The Naked Dorm

http://www.eagleforum.org/column/2003/mar03/03-03-26.shtml

I'm usually the last to hear thing, my news is old as the first war against Iraq. But I couldn't pass this up: Coed dorms are old hat, but a Connecticut university has The Naked Dorm which, according to Phyllis Schlafly, "advertises itself as a diverse, multicultural, political active dormitory for men and women where clothing is 'optional.'"

Oh, the institution of higher learning? Wesleyan University. As in John Wesley of the Methodists.

Monkey see, monkey do

"Path to Rome – The only conference of famous converts to the Catholic Church!"

The Pentecostals have done this for ages, parading all the famous people in their midst as an evangelistic method. Now the Catholics have a special venue to let their rich and famous shine to attract more converts and make their followers feel special.

Somehow, somehow, it's one more item that doesn't jive well with the original faith as the Lord established it.
