Dear Prof. Osler: I live in the Metroplex, and I have nothing to do tomorrow night.
Dear Metroplex Resident,
Are you interested in capital punishment? If so, I will be speaking tomorrow night at the University of Texas- Arlington before their production of Tim Robbins' stage version of Dead Man Walking. My talk will be at 6 pm in room 258 of the Fine Arts Building at UTA; the play will be in the same building with more chat after the show, I suspect. My presentation may involve a brief liturgical dance and an intermission during which I will play the banjo and sing "Rocky Top." Crack will not be mentioned...
Yours Truly,
Mark

Cool - Tim Robbins! Oh sorry, Cool. Prof. Osler! OK - I'm a freaky Bull Durham fan and I love him in Shawshank Redemption with Morgan Freeman.
Sorry I can't be in town to do this myself;( Good luck!

Osler, c'mon... It's part of the song "Rocky Top"! You obviously haven't been in the South long enough. :)

"Dead Man Walking" & Sr. Helen Prejean: A Critical Review
From Dudley Sharp
" . . .makes you realize the Dead Man Walking truly belongs on the shelf in the library in the Fiction category."
"Being devout Catholics, 'the norm' would be to look to the church for support and healing. Again, this need for spiritual stability was stolen by Sister Prejean."
