In this midst of this commotion, …

However, Friday night there was a moment that stopped time and brought the essence of the event into beautiful clarity. I was the only one who noticed.

…and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man. What happened to little Joey Hurkle who was found dead today, apparently from Old Age? This however warrants more than just a posting on the bulletin board in the obituary section; this warrants an investigation. Why? Joey was only eight years old! Perhaps we have rested too long. A strange “pestilence” seems to be in our land. We don’t have …

May we of Falton never lose our “edge” as a fierce land of honorable warriors. …
