Top Ten Reason To Love Being Episcopalian

10. Anglican Aerobics are good for you .... sit-stand-kneel, sit-stand-kneel, sit-stand-kneel .
9. We get to drink real wine at church .... even on Sunday.
8. Not only can Episcopal women wear pants ... they can be Deacons, Priests and Bishops.
7. We "proselytize" by serving our fellow man,not by assaulting him on the street corner and telling him that he is bound for hell.
6. You don't need a life guard on duty to be baptized ... a small measuring cup will do.*
5. Our Bishops are real people ... they will sit on the ground and play "duck-duck-goose" with the kids at camp. (Diocese of Central PA)
4. We ""respect the dignity of ALL human beings" be they black, white, gay, or straight.
3. Our National Cathedral has a very cool Darth Vader gargoyle .
2. There has never been an "Episcopal Inquisition" .... God gave you a brain - we encourage you to use it .
1. Scripture ... Tradition ... and .... REASON !!!! Need I say more ?? - via Momus Operandi

*Note - this joke won't go over as well at St Nicholas, Elk Grove... they've got a baptismal pool that's about calf-deep.

Some of this stuff, I can actually do. I need to cut out caffeine, sodas, sodium, and high-fat dairy though, and eat more fruits and vegetables.

Paul Krugman wonders why so few profs are social conservatives.

Could be that profs are almost universally people who think for a living. Professional thinkers thus are more likely to see the fallacies?

Suspiciously Familiar

When Keith Thomson took a job as an ad-agency copywriting trainee at the age of 22, he wasn't exactly a naif. But he didn't expect that his two male supervisors would concoct a casting call for a bogus pantyhose manufacturer and proceed to test more than the acting abilities of the fashion models who responded.

Even as Thomson's illusions about suave and polished ad executives were dashed, so was his expectation that work would be a conventional meritocracy. "There is a meritocracy, but the merits are much different than you assume: sleeping your way to the top, playing golf with the right guy or drinking yourself silly in a barroom," says Thomson, who has just published his first novel. "You're looking for people to be your idols and mentors," he adds, but "one after another you realize there aren't any perfect people at work."

that was TOTALLY a Rance story! Sent to me complements of The Bard Sinister.
