NOT for the Arachnophobic…

Eight legs. Lots of eyes. Eats flesh. Does the Buddha Nature give you the creeps? It’s just hunting tiny prey at a miniature watering hole. Bon apetit!

Shirtless Quiddich at Cal

Posted on September 25, 2011 by | 1 comment

I happened upon a Quiddich practice at UC Berkeley last Sunday. Did you know they had a team? Many college campuses are now forming teams to play this increasingly popular sport, invented by author J.K. Rowling in her Harry Potter series.
This team may not fly on their broomsticks, but their semi-shirtless practice sure attracted plenty of spectators.

Private Parts for the taking…

Whipping Post in Virginia…

Posted on September 25, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Hugging the widow. Interesting racial politics at play in this notice from 1892. A bill was introduced in the Virginia legislature to reinstate whipping as a form of judicial punishment. The argument against it, as argued here, was that there was no provision to protect white offenders from a punishment deemed appropriate only for their black counterparts.
