My brother, a man of divinity in Ohio, and I discuss the election:
matthew: i'm rather upset about the election
[...]
christopher: 51% is hardly a mandate
matthew: at least NH went for Kerry
matthew: i'm glad i did a small part for that
christopher: oh might have
christopher: if kerry hadn't conceded
christopher: all the absentee and provisional ballots haven't been counted
matthew: well, NH was a battleground
matthew: just a really small one
christopher: bush was up by 136K, but there were 300k still to count
matthew: can you damn your parishioners?
christopher: i often do
matthew: really? brimstone even?
christopher: well, not to their faces
matthew: you need to step it up a bit
