  1. Yo! Matt,

    It is Mark V. You obviously have not heard me speak in a while.

    What an honor to make your list. You made my day...albeit undeserved!

  2. Mark: Hey! Great to know you have a blog - you can bet I'll be visiting and leaving you nasty comments. (Ha, ha!)

    Yes, it's true I haven't heard you in a while, but I check your sermon notes on your church website from time to time, and I imagine you saying the words. So, in a way, I still hear you.
