Senator Rand Paul has my first name

Randal Paul. One "l" not two, like mine. Was called Randy before his wife prompted him to shorten it to Rand.

There's a subscriber to one of my lists that used to call me Rand. Coincidence, I guess.

But Mr. Rand Paul doesn't have my politics, nor my faith, nor, probably, my vote. (Probably nobody will.)

The girl who sells deer licences at Wal-Mart ... Jay's Impromptus

The girl who sells deer licenses at Wal-Mart? Her name is Bambi. Swear.

Jay wonders if her superiors put her there on purpose. May have. However she got there, a clear case of being in the wrong spot.

Some people are called Christians, and they're often in the wrong place or doing the wrong thing. You can be sure it wasn't their management who did that, but they went off on a lark, took a wrong turn somewhere. May they find their way back on track.

I'm not against hunting deer. But wearing the name of Christ and getting out of step with him never comes out well.
