Merry Christmas!

I was hoping to take a photo today of our White Christmas, but not only is it sunny, almost all of the snow melted over the last last week, and the little snow we've received since doesn't even cover up suburban grass. So I have to settle for this photo taken a week ago in Glenview Woods, with once again the North Branch of the Chicago River.

That being said, Merry Christmas!

And in the spirit of my last post, I've found some more presents under the blogosphere tree.

First the bad news: Sisu is suffering from Pie Dough Derangement Syndrome.

Along that light, Mr. Right has a whole sack full of Christmas-themed videos, including some Mr. Bean Christmas fun.

Gaius over at Blue Crab Boulevard tells a story of two surprise Christmas Eve weddings for a Wisconsin couple.

Deebow at BlackFive has a lump of coal for the nine congressmen, all Democrats, who voted against the support of Christmas resolution earlier this month. My Democratic congresswoman, Jan Schakowsky, had the courage to vote "present."

And LaShawn Barber notes reminds us that Christmas is a religious holiday, and through Luke, spreads the Good News."
