Happy Birthday Vortex!

It's been cold and rainy all day, so I have opted to exercise my rainy day perogative and have stayed in and napped and lazed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I went out and experienced the good weather, although I didn't enjoy it as I probably should have. I am more hung over than I thought. And than I should be! I didn't drink that much last night, but I guess I didn't eat much, either. Ugh. I did walk around and did errands, so that's good.

Happy Birthday Vortex!

Are we still talking religion? 'Cause I saw a guy downtown today wearing a t-shirt that said "Jesus made me Kosher." What does that even mean??

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I don't know what that means. My best guess is it's some Messianic thing.

In odd t-shirts, I some someone today wearing a shirt that said "Liberalism Breeds Terrorism" on the front and "Terrorism Breeds Liberalism" on the back.

I resisted saying "Wouldn't that depend on how Jesus slaughtered you?" but it was a near thing.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Probably Jews for Jesus or a similar organization, and I think the theological concept behind it is kosher in the broader sense of pure/clean--translated into, say, Baptist, it would be "Jesus cleansed me from my sins."

Huh. In that case it seems kind of assholish confrontational.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I went to a Civil War re-enactment today. Had a good time, didn't get too sunburned, and took a bunch of pictures: [link]

There was a Union camp, a Confederate camp, a civilian camp, and sutlers area. They seem to take their costuming pretty seriously, and there were some interesting historical/modern contrasts as the re-enactors and the spectators milled about together.
