RYC: Actually, now that you mention it, I quit reading the Amish Society book when it got to the part about their economy! I didn't even realize that until you said something. It was something about selling livestock and farming not being enough to sustain them...I don't really remember because my eyes glazed over.
I have heard that they've never been a self-sustaining closed economy. I'd bet thier chief revenue currently is "Amish Stuff" and tours for outsiders.
BTW, J needs to get with me about a having poker night. My brother is so busy lately it's unlikely we'll be able to involve him or use his place. Also, I'm always looking for people to shoot skeet with, if he's into that.
Proud Person of Pallor -- made me almost snort tea out of my nose. It's tempting to use that as the name of my Xanga.
I just now read your comment about shooting skeet and having a poker night. I'll pass it along to Jonny. I don't know if he's ever shot skeet, but he likes anything involving shooting, so I imagine he'd at least give it a try.
Our mutual friend Jason is off work having back surgery. Everyone keeps saying, "He's so YOUNG to have back surgery!" I agree.
Thank you for not leaving a derrogatory (sp?) comment about my references to praising God for Jonny's job situation. You really need to teach my sister's atheist boyfriend a few lessons on when to ignore things you don't agree with in order to be polite!
