His Noodly Appendage, Now in Yarn Form

I'm inordinately pleased by this. :)

Earlier this summer, I threw in for a fundraising contest for Camp Quest, pitting a team of us lowlier bloggers against the Dark Overlord himself. The over $30,000 we collectively raised was reward enough for me, but I just received a completely unexpected thank-you gift in the mail: a hand-crocheted Flying Spaghetti ...

The last stop on our tour of Spain was Barcelona, and it was a fitting way to wind up the trip. One of the first sights we saw in the city was the Sagrada Familia, a famous church designed by the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi and a major tourist destination. We were all a bit tired of churches by this point, but the Sagrada Familia is, at least, a little more unique and interesting than the predictably similar cathedrals we saw elsewhere in Spain. We ...

We saw a lot of churches and cathedrals in Spain, but the Cathedral of Valencia could claim one mark of distinction that some of the much larger and more impressive ones couldn't. Namely, it's the final resting place of that most precious Christian relic, the Holy Grail itself. To see that and more, click to continue...

Photo Sunday: The Beard Experiment

Ebonmuse — Sun, 03 Jul 2011 14:59:55 +0000

Regular readers may remember that last month, I let myself get talked into growing a beard as the result of a fundraising contest for Camp Quest. Well, I'm not about to suffer through an entire scorching summer with this extra insulation - but I've let it grow freely for a month now, and I think that's more than enough time to judge the finished product. If you think you can handle the sheer masculine power, follow me below the fold...

As I've mentioned, my wife and I took a trip to Spain last month to celebrate our first anniversary. I'm not going to inflict all my vacation photos on you, but we did see some sights that are relevant to the kind of thing I usually write about on Daylight Atheism.

This past week, on a sunny spring day, I went on my lunch hour to see a new public art installation in midtown Manhattan:

Earlier this year, I took a tour of Jerry Falwell's Liberty University and wrote about the experience. But on that same trip, I also had a chance to see a more hopeful sight, a monument to human reason rather than to false dogma: Monticello, the former home of Thomas Jefferson, now restored and turned into a museum. Unbelievably, photos weren't allowed inside the house, but I got some good pictures from the ... [visit site to read more]
