Oh, great–no pressure there! And my own blog is currently full of drivel and fluff…you’d have to backtrack a week or two to find any real content, I’m afraid. And, erm, I’m about to post a whole bunch of PICTURES OF MY KID! Quite original and thought-provoking, my life.
Everyone is interesting in their own way – so don’t be intimidated =) I’m actually very excited to read about a leftist Southern Christian – as I once was one. Now I’m a liberal Northern Pagan – but hey, in truth they’re really not that far apart.
Catholics worship all sorts of Saints and Angels…
Christians, Catholics, and Pagans all celebrate “Yule” – even though it is the uneducated non-pagans that think Christmas is Yule, when in truth Yule came first and was moved to Dec. 23 because Christians insisted on Dec. 25.
A very large majority of the Spanish population, overseas or otherwise, are either Catholic or Jesuit of some sort, yet they celebrate Cinco de Mayo – the Day of the Dead, essentially the pagan Samhain, or ‘Halloween’
In truth, we have all become tolerant of each religion – we simply refuse to admit it. Eh – I’ve strayed off topic =) What I really meant to say was good luck and have fun!
Fantastic name. I can’t even go over there right now, I’ve got an overdue forecast to finish.
hey btw Pia I would be happy to suggest things for a Hawaii trip but I have to confess I’m not very useful outside of the island of Oahu! It’s funny, the other islands are SO close and I know that they are wonderful, but by the time I’ve actually hauled my okole (backside) all the way from New York City…I’m very happy to stay on the island where I grew up (eating manapua and malasadas to get in touch with my inner 10-year old of course!).

Belinda… I’ve already gone to check you out, and I’ve already laughed (at “cat at a dog show status”. Indeed.)
Thanks, Pia!

oops meant to say I can’t go over there RIGHT NOW but intend to tonight or maybe on lunch hour if I need a break!
I read the post. I don’t think the interview thing was a new idea, but it’s still a good on. I liked Belinda. She rocks. Thanks for the story.
