Strange verses
Item one: Random word I thought of. Thespionage. Is this the undercover slaying of actors/actresses by nefarious parties?
Item two: Guess where the following passage is from. Whoever gets it right will probably get linked to my blog. Dante's Purgatorio, canto XV, lines 1-15, trans. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
As much as 'twixt the close of the third hour
And dawn of day appeareth of that sphere
Which aye in fashion of a child is playing,
So much it now appeared, towards the night,
Was of his course remaining to the sun;
There it was evening, and 'twas midnight here;
And the rays smote the middle of our faces,
Because by us the mount was so encircled,
That straight towards the west we now were going;
When I perceived my forehead overpowerd
Beneath the splendor far more than at first,
And stupor were to me the things unknown;
Whereat towards the summit of my brow
I raised my hands, and made myself the visor
Which the excessive glare diminishes.
Item three: a very poetic (in an odd political way) photo. This is not me but I wish it were.
Oops
The title of this blog is a wee bit misleading. The "pc" part normally stands for "politically correct ." I am the antithesis. Too lazy to change it now...
Well, actually, I do want change in certain areas of society - less persecution of Christians by such organizations as the ACLU, for one. Fill in the blank. _____________
Intro post
This is my second blog. As such it will have secondary importance; I probably won't post on this much, except news items and random stuff. I am an LCMS Lutheran, conservative, and a pretty nutty aspiring biologist. Having several Muslim friends, I endeavor to show them the benefits of Christianity. If you want to go diatribe-happy in your comments, by all means go ahead. Just be warned that I will make a snarky comeback. (how I do love that word snarky! not a fake word either) Hang tight for seemingly random, biological, religious, and political posts.
