Quote of the Day

At our Holiday Teens Club this morning, as I was waiting on one of my colleagues to gather some craft materials, I stalled for time by asking the kids what they thought of South Africa’s World Cup match last night. (The RSA, better known as “Bafana Bafana,” lost 3-0 to Uruguay.) We chatted about this for a few minutes, then one of the kids loudly proclaimed: “Al, we didn’t come here to talk about Bafana Bafana.” And he was right. We were there to discuss something far more lasting. I appreciated the insight.
