Meanwhile, back at the ranch, there have been no irate
respondents calling in, nothing out of the ordinary
for a quiet Sunday morning other than Canadian
Thanksgiving. We'll start dialing them again on
Tuesday, I think.

Threatening abusive respondents is not a good plan.

I have yet to take my break.

Ah, clergy-moments. Not the big world-saving sort of
thing, but it makes that much difference when you can
be an unexpected source of understanding for someone
who's having a rough day.
