I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

What is even happening?

I just got an email from our associate pastor, letting me know tomorrow's morning services have been called off on account of the snow storm. Mind you, this is New England, and not one flake has fallen.

I ought to get a cookie for refraining from sending my first response: "Oh ye of little faith."

Heh, heh, heh. Cindy funny.

We've got a couple of inches here. I'm cozily ensconced on the couch with a blankie while I consider dinner options. I did brave the grocery store today, but only for four items. In and out in less than fifteen minutes. Weaving through all the crazy.

I was hoping for a H:LotS DVD from Netflix in the mail, but no such luck. I guess I'll manage anyway.

The evil is this way?

TWELVE ZILLION INCHES OF DEATHSNOW

KILLER FROST!

And now I am envisioning a movie trailer in which the heroine is stalked by a serial killer series of snowflakes, each unique, yet each sharing a single purpose. It’s like the Borg.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

A few years ago Mom's church had a new pastor who also without a flake, morning of, cancelled church by PUTTING A SIGN ON THE DOOR. He didn't last long.

I'm not sure if the congregation of First Presbyterian was more offended because a) the manse was next door or b) it was so lutheranish of him to do.

I hope he thinks so, Jen. I shut off the P.C., went down to the basement, read for a while, came back up, rebooted the P.C. and sent it, after all.

Mark your calendars, NBC just played another country's national anthem.

Granted, it was the first medal of the games. (and for the record, no, he was not singing)

I feared that you were trying to link me to some LiveJournal thingy, but instead it's almost Bronze-like. Who is hosting that board? Nevermind -- I see it's the folks from the BetaBronze. Interesting

snerk

(Although, I'm surprised the Lutherans would cancel on account of anything. They're pretty fierce.)

Our senior pastor (who's been with us more than 20 years) originated the cancellation message, so I don't think the a.p. is on his way out the door. I remember the pastor telling us a year or so ago, that there'd only been one cancellation in X years (maybe even longer than he'd been with the church). Heck, our congregation even met when the church burnt down. It's too funny to me, that this hysteria has them cancelling before the snow even falls.

Oh ye of little faith, I mean...see, not all LiveJournal pimping. Artie & Phoenix were involved (design etc.), but the mod list is here (scroll down): [link]
