Unfortunately, there's competition with the shower: a lecture and reading on
campus by Scott Cairns (flyer attached).  He's a prof. of creative writing,
a poet, and a convert to the Greek Orthodox church.  Lots of religious
themes in his writing.  He's also just written a book on his pilgrimages to
Mt. Athos, the monastic center in Greece, in search of a deeper life of
prayer.

"Prayer and the Poetic"
Thursday, Sept. 20, 7:30
ART 1.102
Parking in garage north of ART, or free at LBJ Library (a bit of a hike)

If clear sight were not so painful, many more would elect to have it.
