A La Carte (01/06)

Friday January 6, 2006

Blogging: Calvinist Gadfly [2] gracefully bows out of the blogosphere. “My passion for the Biblical languages is calling me to give myself over to them in a more dedicated and intense manner.”

Animals: Tim Irvin has bought himself some chickens [3]. He says that “you can buy a pair for less than the cost of a dog collar.” I’d gladly trade in my dog’s collar for a couple of those chickens (I’ll even toss in the dog as well). How’s about it?

Politics: Pat Robertson has done it again [4]. This time he has suggested that Ariel Sharon’s stroke was divine punishment for dividing God’s land. Can’t anyone get this guy to stop talking?

Weather: I heard yesterday that the Toronto area has not seen the sun since December 12. I do not find that hard to believe. It has been cloudy with cloudy periods followed by brief glimpses of cloud. It’s starting to get old!
