A Reading for the Eleventh Day of Christmas [and from one of my favorite writers]


Preached at S. Pauls upon Christmas Day. 1626. The whole life of Christ was a continual passion; others die martyrs, but Christ was born a martyr . . .

Surf Report 1-2-09


Good Friday morning surf addicts.  Well the new year is off to a slow start for surf.  Yep we’re looking at another day of weak waves.  It’s mostly clean with a minor dose of west northwest energy and a touch of southwest swell. That’s making for some soft sectiony lines with a few workable ones if you’re on a log or a fat fish.  Most OC beaches are running about ankle to waist high with the standout spots pulling a few bigger sets. At 6:35 a.m the tide dropped to a 2.5 low and then pushes ba

This seems like a good Friday to take a look back, as people recover from their New Year’s celebrations (including us!) and as many of us look forward to what 2009 has in store for us (we’re wishing for an improved economy, for one!). 10 Years Ago on Psych Central Enjoying the Moment: It’s Harder Than It Seems I’ve always been fascinated by the passage of time, and how our perceptions make something that is unchanging seem dynamic and fluid.

A Happy Refrain


It’s another edition of Feel Good Friday and what better way to feel good this first FGF of 2009 than with a little fiddlin’?  Now, this idn’t the way they fiddle in the Great State of Kentucky, but, that’s ok.  Gene Kelly and Donald O’Connor had it going on. Gene Kelly rightfully gets a lotta props for his genius, but, Donald O’Connor doesn’t and it’s a shame. You gotta watch this and if you want more O’Connor and Kelly, do yourself a favor and rent Singin’ In The Rain. It’s not surprising that
