Whew! I'm awake, showered, dressed, and ready to fly to Pennsylvania for the annual Purple Door Festival. Boy, am I tired! I wonder if it was for moments like these that God created the coffee bean and plant. Is that little boost of caffeine put here just so we can get going when sleep seems so fleeting?
Some might say, "It's hard to be spiritual with caffeine in your body," but I'm more with the crowd that would say, "It's hard to be spiritual without caffeine in your body!"
I'm really looking forward to this weekend's festivities and music. It'll be exciting to thumb through the brand new issue for about the third or fourth time, as a few copies arrived overnight yesterday morning. It looks really good! I'm stoked. It's funny -- I noticed that I made the same idiotic mistake again in this issue. In the last (Jul/Aug, #120) issue, there is the mysterious printing of the words "BY CHRIS TROUTMAN" printed over the dark background of the Tiffany Arbunkle photo in the Plumb spread. Very embarrassing, but fortunately hard to notice with the black ink and dark photo background. It was from using the same template as a previous issue's layout. Well, the T Bone Burnett layout in this issue, which was laid out for the last issue but canned due to lack of an interview opportunity, has the same problem in the black background of T Bone's photo. Oh my! How silly and careless!
Let God arise and His enemies be scattered!
