Tapestry Comics: A Directory of Web Comics with Feeds I read several comics courtesy of Tapestry's feed. It's worth a few bucks in their tip jar!

Here's one way to do it: grab people who waste power and shake some sense into them. Sorry about the down time – my husband David wasn't around today and so I had to wait for him to walk me through the difficult and dangerous procedure by phone to get the blogs back up. Here's what he had me do: Walk downstairs and identify which of several "tower" computers is the one where the blogs and David's computer archives reside (hint for next time – it's the one in the middle). Cycle power. Walk upstairs and see if blogs and…

Pope Revises 'Limbo' for Babies | Chicago Tribune VATICAN CITY — Pope Benedict XVI has revised traditional Roman Catholic teaching on so-called "limbo," approving a church report released Friday that said there was reason to hope that babies who die without baptism can go to heaven. Benedict approved the findings of the International Theological Commission, which issued its long-awaited document on limbo on Origins, the documentary service of Catholic News Service, the news agency of the American Bishop's Conference. This is just…weird. Next week: the Pope announces just exactly how many angels can do the foxtrot on the head of a…

I read just now on her blog that Holly Mullen will now be an editor at the City Weekly, a Salt Lake alternative newspaper. She had been a well-regarded columnist at the Salt Lake Trib, but left in a disagreement over the direction the paper was taking. She is happy about this development. Very happy! And before the news was even official, a former collegue called and got the scoop. And somehow, the Trib has even discovered Holly's unofficial new duty: she is now apparently in charge of editing names. The City Weekly's blog noticed this fact in an early…

Heh. Brother Causticus had the right idea: pay for the Archbishop's travel to visit we poor benighted colonials instead of his ultra-conservative chums in Africa, via an eBay auction: See American bishops in their native habitat! The bishops of the American Episcopal Church have asked Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury, to make an unprecedented and long-delayed visit to them in North America to discuss the Current Unpleasantness pre-occupying the Anglican Communion. The Americans assure ++Cantuar that their Christian hospitality will match that of the various fissiparous bishops he has broken bread with on multiple continents. So that the plate…

And now for something completely different: a blog about running a stately home that's part residence, part public museum, and completely amusing: Stately Moans: November 2006 The Cow Whisperer I stood at the gates, trying to pinpoint where the noise was coming from. I’d driven up to the entrance to unlock the gates and had heard something new and interesting. Ah! There! Peering over the hedge I could see the Farmer on his quad bike, attempting to round up his herd of cows. He was not doing terribly well. The cows were forming breakaway groups and scattering to all four…

This is too funny, and too true. I can't say I've evangelized with the evangelicals, but all three of the other things happens every Sunday, if I go to both services at St Nicholas with the Holy Innocents. Which I've been doing lately, mostly because as a choir member I enjoy singing both services, as the music is slightly different for each. Today was especially nice as a young woman with a gorgeous, trained voice sang "Domine Deus," by Antonio Vivaldi. Also, in both services we've been singing a really pretty modern "Kyrie," by Marty Haugen, that has a soft…
