As I was putting together the annotated bibliography (or "Resource Feast", as I like to call it) for an HIU assignment this weekend, I noticed on Amazon.com a SIP (Statistically Improbable Phrase) that dripped irony:
"serve our neighbor"
Yup, it was right up there in rarity with "unitive wisdom", "prophetic simplicity" and "holy obedience": those words just don't get put together very often in the English Language anymore.
What a shame, on one hand. What an opportunity, on the other!
When I'm done with this paper, I'm going to slip next door and see if my neighbor needs help with anything. If not, I'll ask him to come help me with something. Together, we can make "serve our neighbor" a little less rare in this world.
Will you join me?

I can certainly try.
Question for you. Do you have any memorable childhood pranks? I'm trying to finish a chapter of my Christmas story, and I'm asking for help. Thanks.
