I think I had a professor like that in college...
That IS sad!!! [that it took 8 months] Especially if Rick did it twice in 2 years--that would come out to be 12 months each time! hahaha
It's too bad he didn't realize that there were more books than that... (maybe he got a "single book copy" *you know--those ones with just one book?* and didn't realize that wasn't all there was!?!--or...maybe his dog got ahold of his full size Bible *with OT included!--lol* and he just had to make do for a few seasons without the rest...
actually, that's more funny than sad
I would think that if he was one of the best in the area that he could at least get 2 full books in a year, especially considering that the "worst" can do 3! (I've heard urban legend that one preacher, long ago, actually did 52 books in one year! But I think he was excommunicated... lol)
