I'm not sure "jaunting" is a word, but who cares. It's that time of the night for me.

I'm headed out early tomorrow morning for a ten day trip to the east coast. The first leg I'll be in Charlotte, N.C. attending the [National Apologetics Conference](http://www.nationalapologeticsconference.com/?ref=mereorthodoxy.com) at Southern Evangelical Seminary. I'm not sure how blogging will be, though I am hoping to put a few posts up from the conference. After that, it's on to Washington D.C. for the [Evangelical Theological Society](http://www.etsjets.org/?ref=mereorthodoxy.com) general meeting. Blogging will definitely be light, as my schedule is packed with meetings. Rumor has it a friend has hooked me up with a White House tour as well. Good times.

More thoughts, as always, on all things that happen to be in my mind at any particular moment when I return.

Oh, before I go, one recommendation: see [The Prestige](http://theprestige.movies.go.com/?ref=mereorthodoxy.com). I was going to review it before I left, but time ran short. It is an entertaining *and* compelling film. "Are you watching closely?" My big thought that is currently inchoate (that's a GRE word, thank you) is that it is intentionally a criticism of lackadaisical audiences who wish only to be entertained, without wanting to think. Be prepared for some disturbing images, but also for an enjoyable and provocative film.
