It's a harp guitar, so cool. You could def kill someone with it, though. Who knows which strange and wonderful chords would ring out as you beat your opponent to death with it?

Christmas, to me, is a dark and reflective time. I love Samuel Barber's Hermit Songs, and St. Ita's vision is the essence of Christmas. Here's a live performance of Ms. Price's rendition, amazing -




"I will take nothing from my Lord," said she,
"Unless he gives me His Son from Heaven,"
In the form of a Baby that I may nurse Him."

So that Christ came down to her
in the form of a Baby
and then she said:

"Infant Jesus, at my breast,
Nothing in this world is true
Save, O tiny nursling, You,
Infant Jesus, at my breast,
By my heart ev'ry night,
You I nurse are not
A churl but were begot
On Mary the Jewess by Heaven's Light,
Infant Jesus, at my breast,
what king is there but You who could
Give everlasting good?
Wherefore I give my food.
Sing to Him, maidens, sing your best!
There is none that has such right
To your song as Heaven's King
Who ev'ry night
Is Infant Jesus at my breast."

Babies enjoying a spa day.

A few days ago I ran down to the riverhouse to see how much damage the cold had done. (a busted pipe at the pump, but no damage in the house) When I came out of the driveway two bald eagles flew from the field across the road. I told the wife about it when I got home and she wanted to go see if they were still around. They were. Sorry for the crappy picture, but I kept easing closer and closer until they flew.

Grew 13 giants sunflowers. Bluejays harvested then in a few days.

Random stuff while I wait for my sister at her cardiologist...
