Wow.  Leroi Moore, the sax/flute/pennywhistle/etc. player of the Dave Matthews Band, has died at the age of 47.  That sucks.  My thoughts are with his friends and family.  A tremendous loss.  He was a true talent and a hell of a guy.

CNN reports that

only about 5 percent of the nation’s churches are racially integrated, and half of them are in the process of becoming all-black or all-white.

Kind of funny.  Isn’t religion supposed to be about being the same in the eyes of God?  These are the kinds of anecdotes that remind me why I have turned my back to “organized religion”.  The hypocracy is absolutely mindblowing.
