Liberty, Justice, & Deeeeelicious Quail

December moves swiftly in its appointed rounds, or in the course of human events, or in its pace from day to day... something like that. Anyway, it's moving quickly enough for me to be late with this reminder to not be late answering this week's quiz offering. But haste makes waste, and I wanted to ponder something suitable for this message. And then my brain said "Mmmmm, Brazilian volleyball" and that was it.

Meanwhile, since it is the holiday season, why not let the infamous Badgers share a little bit of the Christmas spirit in their own special way? Yeah, I thought you would.

And, as it is a season for giving and sharing, mightygodking asked us if we would spread the news about his community, improved_archie. Considering how unsubtly we've been asking all of you to spread the word about ljdq, we agree that a little something in return is not unheard of. Also, having seen the comm, it's got the potential for a lot of funny if a bunch of photoshop-and-humor-gifted players step up to bat. Plus, it makes fun of Archie, and that's worth it right there.

Meanwhile, Happy Immaculate Conception, for all you Catholics out there. It's a Holy Day Of Obligation, so get your asses to church!

P.S. - Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but if the Conception took place on Dec 8 and J.C was born Dec 25, does that mean a 2.5 week incubation period, or a full year of development? Did babies take longer to make back then? Or are Sons Of God high-speed in the fetal development stage? Inquiring minds want to know!

P.P.S. - Settle down. I'm heretical, and I'm going to hell. I know this. Go flame Jack Thompson instead.

Her parents probably just had really high midichlorian counts in their bloodstream. It was their destiny to produce The Chosen One.

Your amazing mix of Star Wars and Catholicism makes me feel compelled to share Groundhog Jesus (http://nucd.keenspace.com/d/20050327.html), inspired by this LJ post (http://www.livejournal.com/users/gilesleary/74224.html).

It still makes me smile.

See, now rather than think of Star Wars, I immediately thought of Harry Potter (which makes me sad). Hey, Hermione had to come from SOMEWHERE, even though her folks were ordinary, right?

A while back there was this whole long involved post somewhere about how magic is a recessive genetic trait, and that's how two muggles can produce a witch or wizard or how sometimes "pure bloods" can be squibs...yeah...
