Who are we? We are our stories.

Thoughts on the Flood

"The main event is right now, while we have this higher water. And it ain't over till it's over," said U.S. Rep. Earl Pomeroy, D-N.D., comparing the need for vigilance until the very end to the University of North Dakota's stunning, last-second loss in the hockey playoffs the night before. "And it ain't gonna be over until several days from now", said Pomeroy, finally running out of sports metaphors.

And: "We can sit back and know that we've done what we can do. Now God's going to do what he can do," said church member Tami Crist. (Apparently overlooking the fact that it was her God that rained destruction down on her head in first place.) Oh well, forgive and forget.
