Two Things That Made Me Laugh

Here's a not-so-shrill take on my homeland's sad rejection of Darwin (hang in for the end, which makes the whole thing more or less relevant to IFM).

And this, which I stumbled across on a blog under the heading Nun-on-Nun Violence cracked me up for no good reason I can think of:

I'm sorry I forgot to come in here and thank you for this last night, niagh. I went straight to the link (after being more-than-momentarily confused and watching that sad penguin tale over and over and over, waiting for the end bit you said to wait for!) and got so caught up in his music, his extraordinary guitar-playing, and his (??? eek) dye-job that I then went happily over to other songs of his (my new kitten's name is NOW, according to the neighbor boys, Lola, so that song was fun too).

He was interviewed on Terri Gross, I think, last week -- or maybe David Dye (out or WHYY! isn't that your neck of the woods??!) so I'd heard the creation song then. very nice to see him play it.

Thank you!

Siobhan,
I too kept waiting for something to happen to the penguin, so you are not alone!
