Hey guys!
Speaking of writing, *grin* I was wondering if one or both of you would enjoy witting an article on rebalution about why you feel the war in Iraq is the right or wrong choice for our country at this time. I am trying to get a group of posts from several bloggers and this topic and I would greatly enjoy hearing your thoughts on the matter. I plan to post this review of articles on Monday so if you would be interested please let me know before then.

Thanks guys!
The Blogging Boy Scout,

Nice thoughts guys, from a guy who is nearly your collective ages. I have enjoyed purusing your blog tremendously today and I shall return for more.

An interesting post, both for the sad state of modern education and the willingness of a professor to do "tough love".

I remember my first essay at University. I thought it was good - but I barely passed. Moreover it was filled with the marker's comments showing how baseless my assertions were and how my arguments simply could not be proven without any real research.

It shocked me. But I, too, was determined to do better. My next essay was not fantastic but it passed.

Sometimes we all need someone to kick us in the pants.

Hey Travis, I'm afraid we're pretty busy over the next week. We're planning on keeping the blog going normally, with a couple of exciting announcements (hopefully) coming up early next week, but I don't think we'll be able to add anything extra.

That said, we look forward to reading what you are able to get together. God bless!
