*toot toot*

That's me, tooting my own horn. The results from the Folio Magazine Awards came in today. I sauntered into my office 20 minutes late. My editor came in and I thought I was about to be reprimanded. Instead he shook my hand and said, "Congratulations on winning a Silver Award for your article!" And then I congratulated him right back, since we co-wrote the piece :)

  3. congrats =) that was a great story jeans. i wonder if rick warren was right about whether or not that constituency really is tiny.

    "But what about the significance of the evangelical left, I asked the pastor of Saddleback Church after his forum with the presidential candidates last weekend. "This big," he says, holding his thumb and forefinger about an inch apart." (WSJ - http://online.wsj.com/public/article_print/SB121944811327665223.html)

    Somehow I'm not sure that he's right.
