Prayer to St. Thomas More
Thomas More, counselor of law and statesman of integrity, merry martyr and most human of saints:
Pray that, for the glory of God and in the pursuit of His justice, I may be trustworthy with confidences, keen in study, accurate in analysis, correct in conclusion, able in argument, loyal to clients, honest with all, courteous to adversaries, ever attentive to conscience. Sit with me at my desk and listen with me to my clients' tales. Read with me in my library and stand always beside me so that today I shall not, to win a point, lose my soul.
Pray that my family may find in me what yours found in you: friendship and courage, cheerfulness and charity, diligence in duties, counsel in adversity, patience in pain—their good servant, and God's first.
Amen.
Now bring on the bastard...

Good luck on the bar!
I'll be in Duluth until July 27th. My flight leaves at 6:30 or something, and training goes from 8:00 to 5:00 each day. :)
Good luck to you too! See you on the other side!

That sound you're hearing is the bar shaking over in the corner, afraid of the absolute hurt you're going to put on it. Good luck, although I doubt you'll need it! :-)
YAY!!!!!!! Hooray! Good job! Way to go! Hip-hip HOORAY! You did GRRRREAAAT!
(Thought you would need some positive encouragement for taking on the ultimate beast!)
Thanks all. :o)
Part II is tomorrow. Then a Jameson or two might be had over at the Liffey.
