Pentacost
What's that?
The beginning of the Christian church. The Holy Spirit and a translation miracle were involved, but I'm fuzzy on the details. Christians are also encouraged to wear red on that day, but I don't know why.
Well, you'd better not be thinking what I think you're thinking, because my answer is the same as always — no threesomes unless it's boy-boy-girl. Or Charlize Theron.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Christians are also encouraged to wear red on that day, but I don't know why.
The Holy Spirit is often symbolized by a red flame, as there were tongues of fire floating above people's heads during Pentacost.
I think.
translation miracle were involved
I think maybe glossalia (speaking in tongues) also happened....

I'm so horrible, I keep forgetting.
Yeah, how dare you, not remember if somebody you don't know from across the ocean, someone who is not even an initials for you, has a son or a daughter. Shame on you.
And it's a son, and he's as adorable as can be. He's right at the age where you can see the kind of toddler he's going to grow up to be, in a few months, but is still a baby. At the end of being a baby, because he runs around, zooming all over the place, and expresses what he wants and doesn't want with words that most people, not just his parents, can understand, but still a baby who cuddles up on his mommy's shoulder when he's tired after she's reading him a bed-time story.
Why 28, of all ages?
Because it's perfect.
Thanks, Gud.
Also for the Christianity explanations. And tommy, too.

I just has some strawberry shortcake and it was awesome. Proper shortcake, dense and crumbly and only a hint sweet.
Mmmm.

I want strawberry shortcake, too, please.
It's grey and rainy here, and I'm dealing with finances. Blergh. Shortcake would help immensely.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Poor Jen. I was about to ask for shortcake too, but I think you need it more.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Love this from the Colbert speech
We played a drinking game called Lincoln-Douglas. Great game. What you do is, you act out the Lincoln-Douglas debate and any time one of the guys mentions the Dred Scott decision you have to chug a beer. Well, technically 3/5 of a beer. [groans from audience]
You DO have a good education! I wasn’t sure if anybody was going to get that joke.

move out and draw fire
Colbert is totally my Seekrit Boyfriend. I'm also slightly amused that the transcript of his speech that I read mistyped the line as: "our all-too-poorest borders"
