For those concerned few (and I do mean few) who are wondering who has kidnapped Danny and forced him to stay away from the blog for almost a week, worry no more. In a fit of madness, he volunteered to serve at two weeks of summer camp, one high school and one (gulp) junior high. He told me to post in his absence, but my bloglines account isn't working and I can't figure it out. Translation: I'm not Danny.

Emma and I went to visit him at West Central Christian Service Camp in LaMonte, MO today. On the way, I listened to my "new" Counting Crows CD (August and Everything After--my absolute favorite--its tape form was borrowed and never returned) which we downloaded from allofmp3.com. As far as we know, this site is completely legal, and oh so cheap. If I had owned this CD at the time of my CDs I can play without skipping a song post, it would have definitely made the list.
