From Denny: Today, over at The Social Poets blog and under 10 July 2009, I have two posts referencing what is was like growing up inside the CIA.

The Libations Friday! post has two good quotes that came out of an essay I wrote a year ago for an online writing group. The posts also go a long way to proving that healing really is an extreme sport and can be accomplished from the worst of circumstances. Go here.
