Dear Myles (from God in the Details, which is to say, as not to say, Taking off and Landing),
Without you, and a little help from the Museum of Fine Arts Houston, I never would have developed the love in my heart for Friedrich Bonhoeffer. Today, as I browsed the aisles of a German bookstore in Kaiserslautern, my heart fluttered with joy as I found a section devoted to our noble hero, our eternal martyr. I bought you a gift, a small token that I know you and you alone will treasure, a sign of gratitude from me to you. While I perpetually fail to remember to send you my AIM screen name, I will succeed in sending you something from across the Atlantic.
German theology and our dear Friedrich, two wings on the golden door of our electronic friendship.
Yours,
Michael (from the internet, aka Kimberley's sailing partner)
