Born Again Virgin

Rand Paul has been in the news for filibustering. While some may think this indicates a talent for talking for hours, it actually is more important from the standpoint of being able to do things like drive a truck for long distances between truck stops. But you hardly ever hear anyone getting credit for that.

It seems like Stephen has a drone in his studio always watching him. It is a mutual admiration society between Stephen and the drone, though, as Stephen expressed his love for the pretty drone watching over him. Yes, Stephen love drone.

North Koreans watch The Colbert Report on their one TV set. We even got to see some actual footage from North Korean TV. In addition, we got to see some sweet Stephen TV. You may remember North Korea, or the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, as they (North Koreans) officially call their country. Interestingly enough. North Koreans also watch basketball and they recently had a treat when they were able to watch it with Dennis Rodman.

Stephen the C. will be taking a two-week break and we found out that he is bored with news. What really excites him is people staring at each other for long minutes while looking at a rose. In fact, that is how he chose the guest for last Thursday was by giving a rose to one of two guest candidates. John Sexton won out. Sadly, for all involved, Dougie St. James had to go home. I was really looking to hearing about the book, "Awakening the Birdhouse Within." I have read most of Dougie St. James other books, so this would have been a real treat.

So, John Sexton was the guest. He is the president of NYU. Stephen talked with him about Sexton's book, "Baseball as a Road to God - Seeing Beyond the Game." Stephen brought up the great truth that Baseball seems endless. Good point. Also, and this could be helpful to many people, Stephen says about some of John Sexton's comments, "I get to say something is true and then go I can't explain it. I'm right though." That should almost be on a fortune cookie, or maybe in tomorrow's horoscope. One other comment Stephen made would not work on a fortune cookie quite as well. "Okay, one of the things that I don't know is what you just said." Honest and humble admission by Stephen.

So anyway, Stephen is off for two weeks and they are picking a new Pope in Rome. I wonder.....
