Thank You For Your Prayers

I just wanted to thank you all for your prayers for my late grandmother and my family. I've been mostly on the road this past week, so I'm understandably not up to writing about much. But I thought you might enjoy this Pandagon conversation about tipping , which raises some very interesting issues, not the least how I think the strong Sabbatarian streak in American Protestants is reflected in some of our behavior at Sunday lunch.
