Geaux Saints

I watched the Superbowl yesterday, with the rest of the world, and, like much of the rest of the world not from New Orleans or Indianapolis, would have been happy with either team winning, but really wanted the Saints to win because they’ve sucked for so long and their city tried to drown itself a [...]

Three Kings Day

In the interest of things interesting, someone told me that today is something called Three Kings Day.

Stonehenge Marks Winter Solstice

December 21 was the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. Thank God, or Bokonon, or whoever you want to thank, because if the days get any shorter here in The Granite State I’m just going to stay in bed. I thought it was really cool to see that Druids and Pagans still show [...]
