This post has pretty much nothing to do with New Year’s Eve and all that jazz, but it does have some actual jazz. And other stuff.

Biblical Memes
Memes are mostly for fun, but they can also be edifying. But mostly fun.
I LOL’d at a few of these, and briefly displayed a knowing smirk at others. Please feel free to apply your own facial expressions as you see fit.
The Lord of all creation is now with us…
And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; He is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” [Luke 2:8-11 (NIV)]
I’ve been posting the lyrics to “Mary, Did You Know” each Christmas for two decades, and I haven’t yet found a reason to stop. I hope you agree with that decision.

This is not a Thanksgiving-related post, and we all can be thankful for that.

Adding a "p" before an "f" makes everything more pfun, wouldn't you agree?
There’s a Death Star in the yard next door, and this post is full of unrelated memes.

Goodbye to pennies; hello to new music; tributes to stars
Pennies are now officially collector’s items. There’s a cool band of teens from NZ. And my latest attempt at astrophotography was a mixed success. What more could you want?
