Here at SBL
Here at SBL (Saturday) Well I am here. I made it. I missed my 6 a.m. flight (who wouldnt?), so they put me on the next flight which was non-stop so I ended up landing in Philly earlier than I would have otherwise. As such, I was able to make the gathering of internet-active, email list types. The annual group photos were taken, & I learned about a listserv Ive never even heard of. Highlights so far have been: Overhearing great conversation over lunch. So often thats the case-no? Carolyn Osieks presidential address where she spoke of ancient texts, historical faith interpretation, modern historical method, and post modern methods as a rich network of interpretations. a productive conversation with my dissertation director. This is all I can muster for now. Writing a blog from my smart phone (Samsung i500) is not the easiest thing. Oh, and by the way, I did find a place to stay (on a golf course). Thanks for those who wrote me with concerns/ideas.
UPDATE: I'm here on the CARG Biblioblog session computer right now... rather surreal.

Hey. Sounds like the hotel is working out well. And like your brain is getting massaged. Excellent. I talked about you in the sermon today, hope you'll forgive me because I've no doubt you'll get comments. Soak in Philly. Drink the free stuff. -D.
Uhm... that was my wife, Dawn, making those comments above.
