Everybody knows Easter isn't until April.

Onesies are very comfy, not a bad choice for sitting around all day.
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Maybe it wasn't a costume. Maybe it was just a big rabbit that accidentally got selected for jury duty. You can't believe everything you read on the internet.

Interesting. I followed up on this thought. It turns out he was registered as "Harvey Dowd."

Does anyone else think he was trying to get out of jury duty?

Our daughter was a cheerleader in high school. Sr '95. Mrs Mc was summoned for jury duty. She showed, looking rather unkempt, and wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with CHEERLEADER'S MOM. She looked like a real ditz. She got selected for the jury anyway. I guess ditzes are not a problem.

On one of the juries I served on (as foreman, no less) a lady in the jury pool was carrying a Bible. I was surprised she was selected. Shoot, I was surprised I got selected, but I didn't have a good T-shirt. Ditzes are still not a problem.

When I saw this post I assumed that it referred to a translation approved by Henry Ford, but of course it's recent.

Henry Ford was a bigot of the first degree. I have a copy of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion which was circulated in the US and very much promoted by Ford. This was a forgery - probably central European - which purported to show how Jews planned to take over the world. It fell on fertile antiSemitic soil, notably and obviously in Germany. It's not a huge stretch to say that Ford's funding of this toxic work's distribution did much to pave the way to WW2.
