[Magdalen] Prayers, please

[Jay Weigel]

The "controlled burn" is just that. She'll have lots of support. I wouldn't
do it either, but I have lots of respect for those who do. I have a friend
(female) who's a paramedic and firefighter and I wouldn't do the second
half of her job for anything, but she loves it. Keep that verse from Isaiah
in your mind.
