was at the local bar tonight with deirdre and we met a med student and his german roommate studying psychology. he told of the story of the charity of st martins of tours, in which st martin sees a beggar on the street and tears his coat in two and gives the beggar half. i thought that was a funny sort of charity for a saint. i know that would be very generous for a normal person, but you'd think that a saint would give over the whole coat. anyway got me thinking about how the beggar was made warm and the saint was not made cold.
