The Winter Holiday Lovefest Post

It has been suggested in several quarters that the best way to handle the encroaching season of gift-giving and generalized avarice (since everybody seems to be broke this year) is to trade favors, services, and homemade stuff. I support this (since I, too, am broke), so in order to facilitate this exchange, I am making this post.

Here's how this goes:

If you want me to do something for you, post it in the comments here, email me, or communicate it to me in some other way. If you want to join the exchange, post this post, or something resembling it, in your little corner of the internet. I make no promises, but I will do my best to fulfill all reasonable requests.

Happy Holidays!

The sound you do not hear is me hitting my head on the desk repeatedly

Poll - 79% of Americans believe that the Virgin Birth of Jesus was a literal, historical, really for sure happened event.

Take a look at that, kids. Read it all the way to the bottom, where 69% of Americans surveyed believe that "creation science" should be taught in addition to or instead of evolution in schools. Wanna guess which of those two options got the most respondents?

Now, I suppose it's possible that the sample for this poll came entirely from people caught as they exited some sort of remedial course in small-town Georgia. Except that I think that statement is unfair to all the students in small-town Georgia who are genuinely trying to better themselves.

In conclusion, Europe.
