Maaaaaarching To Which End

Psssst, hey, March, yeah, you, I gots a question for you; it may involve a deal. Ok - so you know how you have that Lion/Lamb-Lamb/Lion thing? Well, which is this? 'Cause I'd like to propose that we call this one Lion. When it feels like -25 and the wind gives me an ice cream headache it reminds me of lions. Ok, it doesn't remind me of lions, it reminds me that Jesus hasn't come back yet. But you get the picture.

Let's just make it easy for you. We'll all say that you came in like a terrible, carniverous, fearsome lion. There is no need for precipitation of the frozen variety to prove your point. I'm already convinced. So you be all scary for a bit longer and then you can go right ahead and make a gradual and seamless transition into lambliness. Deal? Deal.

I'm glad we had this little chat.

Not Just In Dance Form

I found this in the Anglican Book Common of Prayer:

43. For Rain

O God, heavenly Father, who by thy Son Jesus Christ
hast promised to all those who seek thy kingdom and its
righteousness all things necessary to sustain their life: Send
us, we entreat thee, in this time of need, such moderate rain
and showers, that we may receive the fruits of the earth, to
our comfort and to thy honor; through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.

I bet I could get another two dollars per hour if I promised my boss that I would pray this 7 times an hour!

This was the weather forecast we received this morning:

Text Forecast: Issued at 5.00 AM EDT Tuesday 17 October 2006
Today..Cloudy. Rain beginning this morning. Amount 10 to 15 mm. Wind becoming southeast 30 km/h gusting to 50 early this afternoon. High 13.
Tonight..Rain ending near midnight then cloudy with 60 percent chance of drizzle. Amount 10 to 15 mm. Fog patches. Temperature steady near 13.

There were 80 mm of rain in the gauge at 6:30 this evening. And it was and still is raining. Hard.

I think they underestimated a little.
