I've been in a conversation on another blog where someone objected to the phrase, "Happy Advent," because it's a penitential season, but I don't think that keeps it from being happy.<br /><br />AMDGJanethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09069018443486415173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6774681833222176907.post-36986614012497768802012-12-06T15:01:27.594-06:002012-12-06T15:01:27.594-06:00I love Advent too.

Like Lent, it has that sense of anticipation that comes with preparation for something, but, unlike Lent, the thing-prepared-for is pure joy, with no valley of the shadow of death to get through first.Craighttp://cburrell.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6774681833222176907.post-433800275082351402012-12-04T08:12:29.261-06:002012-12-04T08:12:29.261-06:00That is the paper clip that holds my extra-special...That is the paper clip that holds my extra-special ribbons. You loop the ribbons around the paper clip and then stick the paper clip on the spine of the book, or preferably, the cover of the book. They used to make one that was about half that size, which was much better. I have found a new method now that won't harm the book at all and should I ever be able to afford the new translation which may or may not be published before I die, I will use the new method. Or maybe by then, they will figure out that you need eight ribbons.<br /><br />AMDGJanet Cupohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01037555111680888247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6774681833222176907.post-4162737324925496122012-12-03T21:11:34.735-06:002012-12-03T21:11:34.735-06:00Very good.

More and more people seem to despise Christianity, too.<br /><br />Either those books are really tiny or that's the biggest paper clip I've ever seen.
