In the interest of sanity, I’m going to take a holiday break from blogging. Unless I stumble across something that I feel I absolutely need to tell you RIGHT NOW, I’ll be back on January 2nd, or maybe January 3rd, with some great stories from the corners of history, some books you ought to read, and some things I’ve been mulling over. In other words, business as usual.

In the meantime, have a merry/jolly/happy/blessed time as you celebrate the victory of light over the darkness in the tradition of your choice.
