It is Easter!

Tomorrow is the day that Christians celebrate the raising of the Messiah.

I have always been intrigued with the timing of it. I found out that it is based on the equinox and full moon. The 22nd (today) is the earliest it can ever be.

Easter Sunday is the Sunday following the Paschal Full Moon (PFM) date for the year. In June 325 A.D. astronomers approximated astronomical full moon dates for the Christian church, calling them Ecclesiastical Full Moon (EFM) dates. From 326 A.D. the PFM date has always been the EFM date after March 20 (which was the equinox date in 325 A.D.).

I was just interested in that. Sorry that I have nothing funny to say but it is just that.


Spring is springing and I planted a garden this year. Hope it grows well. I have a mole in my yard and it is burrowing all over. I want to get rid of it.

Closing of another Era!!!

It is with great sadness that I announce that another one of my favorite bloggers is closing his doors. I have read with great enjoyment of his expereinces of retail work. Tim announce the other day that he has quit the retail work world for something...anything else. Please pop over to his blog and read through some of his stuff and then check out his other blogs on cartooning. Tim has been a great source of laughter as I look at myself (the customer) through the eyes of the retail clerk. Here is a link to his page in case you can not find it on the sidebar.

Tim you are going to be missed. Good luck!!!
