…I read the NYT obituary of "wandering evangelical" Rachel Held Evans, 37, who died of a strange brain infection leaving her husband to care for their 3 and 1 year olds. She ditched the Episcopal church because it was too exclusive and tweeted to "proclaim a more just and expansive vision of God’s love& help other spiritual seekers to realize that they were not alone."…

Did you enjoy your meeting with PP yesterday? It's nice that you conversed about the thriving economies of Slovakia and the USA. I wish he would return the 14 F-16 military jets PP purchased from Lockheed Martin. Why does a little country like Slovakia need any fighter jets at all? …

The perfect day to hang out in your office entertaining PM Peter Pellegrini (PP) from Slovakia. I had to scrounge around on the internet to find out about Slovakia. As I am sure you know it is resisting the euroscepticism that the other 3 countries in the Visegrad are embracing.

… According to factbas.se, your speech at the Resch Center was slightly positive. That's a step in the right direction! I skimmed the transcript and was surprised to see that you claim to have a magic wand. Really Donald? A magic wand? The folks in Racine know better, because if you had one, the FoxConn deal would be moving forward as planned which, unfortunately it is not. …

…What do you think of Joe Biden's candidacy? If the cover of the NYT is any indicator, he might give you a run for your money. Your name appears there 12 times today and his appears 11 times. I would prefer a younger, more progressive Democratic candidate and would be really excited to see a woman running against you. Joe, is the "been there, done that" candidate, don't you think? …

…  I am finding it hard to embrace the message of Easter this year. The fire at Nortre Dam, the bombings in Sri Lanka, families suffering on the border and my husband's diminished health have me feeling doubtful.

Kids don't get politics so that part of the story is lost on them. Eventually, you get to the part where the disciples find an empty tomb. Since I find that hard to believe myself, I always have a hard time helping them comprehend how miraculous that would be…
