Because I’ve now responded to the question twice (and both times I’ve bitten my tongue and not called the questioner a racist asshole), I suspect you’re probably hearing it too. If you would like to respond, then feel free to use my answer. Moreover, feel free to adopt it as your own, recycle it, condense it, elaborate on it, spread it to the ends of the Intarwebs.

A lament to the early news that 31 people were killed today at Virginia Tech University.
I’d entreat you to be witty in reply, but since I’ve already consigned you to the realm of uninteresting, I’ll just entreat you to reply.
The strike at the Kohler plant in Searcy, Arkansas has hit 100 days, and according to the Daily Citizen, a complaint to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has been filed by the union.
The Kohler plant in Searcy, Arkansas is threatening scabs.
I’ve always thought St. Paul’s claim in Romans 5.7 enigmatic, but now it makes a little more sense: he turns the act “to die for,” which to Rome was an act that was meaningful only insofar as it was political, away from the political and toward the private—that is, goodness.
