Expect the blog to be sporadic this week

I am sitting in my Colorado office presently, it is 27 degrees outside, and we just received about six inches of snow on the ground. At about 1pm today I'll be basking in the 80-degree weather of Southern California where I will be teaching classes in San Diego Tuesday through Thurday, and then driving up the coast to Los Angeles on Friday to attend the debate and speak at the Alpha and Omega conference. The attention I'll be able to give the blog will be sporadic throughout the week, but I will make every attempt to post something daily. Who knows? Perhaps my pessimism about the amount of time I'll be able to devote to the blog will shed along with my sweatshirt and coat. We shall see.
