It’s that time of year again. The time when it starts taking twice as long to drive to work because of the road conditions, snow plows run over gas mains in your neighborhood, and the time when I can be pulled into discussions about the origins of Christmas about as easily as I can [...]

Happy Saturnalia!
December 17, 2008The frowny face in the sky
December 1, 2008I’ve been looking forward to the frowny face in the sky for about a week (since I found out there was going to be one). What stinks is that it’s now cloudy on the night I’d actually be able to see it. If you’re wondering what I’m talking about, Venus, Jupiter, and a crescent moon [...]
Are these the same Catholics I used to know?

I just finished playing Assassin’s Creed a couple of nights ago and have spent the time since then pondering my comments for my highly anticipated game review. [...]
Happy Birthday, Mithras!
December 16, 2007So it’s Christmas time again. I’ve successfully purchased all the gifts for Jessie from me and from Hannah. (That includes birthday presents since her birthday is right before Christmas.) The tree is up. The stockings are hung – by the front door on some coat hooks since we don’t have a [...]
