Originally posted December 22nd, 2010. To throw another element into this discussion, the original Greek in the Bible indicates that Jesus was a toddler when the Magi visited, not a newborn, which may further complicate our calendar. Last night’s lunar eclipse was spectacular. It was difficult to find a good webcam view of it, but some […]

Play-Doh Men

No! No! I jumped onto the next log dammed across the murky water, then onto a piece of driftwood. The grey sky arced overhead like a bird of prey with its wings unfurled as I jumped towards shore. Why I hadn’t fallen into the pond yet I didn’t know, because that’s where they were with […]
