#41: Oh, He’s a Wonderful Savior
(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) Sometimes in this series I come across hymns I never really knew. I think this is one of them.

Batman and Robin
Last night I watched a second season episode of the 1960s Batman and Robin television show. It was a wonderful, humorous, formulaic show. You could always count on the corny phrases, the fight scenes, the cliff-hanger ending that they got out of at the beginning of the next episode by some "logical" trick of science … Continue reading Batman and Robin
