Unitarians, Isocracy, Misc.
Jul. 5th, 2012 09:37 amFundraiser for the Father Bob Foundation at the Unitarians went very well; over 100 people in attendance, over $1000 raised.

In other Unitarian news this Sunday I'm giving an address on Terrorism: A Unitarian-Universalist Response, which will look at definitions, immediate responses, and preventative actions.

Apart from finishing off a work project (next post), the other major event in the week was the extraction of a tooth. In a mouth of chompers that have survived very well despite extremely occassional visits to the dentist, one hairline crack in a molar resulted in root canal therapy two years ago, and finally removal last Thursday. Also, finished four reviews for various Rifts publications, submitted to rpg.net, and have received a pre-release of sixth edition RuneQuest.
