The Fashion of Occupy Wall Street.
Albert Mohler and Jim Wallis debated last night on whether social justice is the mission of the church. If the debate is not up yet, it will be soon.
This article by Scott McClellan came out a few weeks ago but its an excellent response to Sony’s “Long Live Play” commercials.

Caryn Rivadeneira says Halloween is not the time to use our kids to push agendas.

So, the link to “Sarah Bessey” goes to “Brett McCraken”. Just FYI.
Want to know where I can see the simulcast from last night
on The Fashion of Occupy Wall Street. It didn’t pull up for me.
Oh man–I knew I shouldn’t have done this while tired!
Thanks for the heads up. I will fix those.
The simulcast should be posted on Trinity’s website in the next day or so. I don’t think they have posted it yet.
@Erin – On first blush 218 out of 315.
Thanks Drew for these…great articles and info on what’s happening around us.
I might have gotten more, but couldn’t commit to a guess. E.g. is that Spider-Man? It doesn’t look like Spider-Man, but it probably is. I didn’t count that toward my final number of correct guesses.
A second pass through puts me at 236 (aka 75%). Another I can’t decide on: is that Moonwalker Michael Jackson? How would one know?
@Erin: 201 on my first run-through.
happy bloody halloween all
Happy Halloween to you too. My daughter and I are going as Ponyo and Koichi. It will be fishtastic.
@Seth / @Jason > nice scores! I came in at a 49%. :(
It absolutely helps to know your comics. At least 51 are straight out of comics. 2 from newspaper strips. And the great thing about comics is that they mostly appear as teams. Knowing the Teen Titans nets you 6, Watchmen nets you 7. X-Men 5. Fantastic Four and Avengers net you 4 each. And so on. Those numbers add up.
If there is one lesson to be learn here it is this: Read More Comics For A Happier Life.
