My brother is a teacher. Recently he overheard a 2^nd grader say to a classmate, “When I was younger, I thought Jesus was the King of the juice.”

That either

• suggests why so many of my red-faced ancestors were drunks
• offers a Christian rationale for intemperance
• is a not-so-subtle reminder to O.J. who’s in-charge, or
• provides an interesting opportunity for lectio.[1]
