Beatitiudes

I was reading this Vonnegut article when he mentioned the Beatitudes. Needing a refresher I did some googling and came up with a minor translational/ recording difference:
Matthew 5:3( the one which everyone likes): Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Luke 6:20 (not quoted quite as often for some reason): Looking at his disciples, he said: "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God."
Not being a follower of the teachings of Jesus myself I am under no direction to be poor, poor in spirit, hunger nor be hungry or to have any characteristics of asceticism. I do find the fact that Mattew's recording of events require less actual suffering and are therefore more oft quoted. Being poor in spirit is a whole lot easier than being actually poor.
On the lighter less sacrilegious side of life, Lou and Senia were up this weekend. We had a good time, and we made CK and Lou tag along as we went out looking for night time photo ops. I got some ok shots, but nothing worth writing home about. The Murphys put on a good show Monday night at the Crystal Ballroom. This venue has some kind of springs underneath the floor, so lay off the booze when visiting because you might not like the jostling when the crowd gets to jumping.
