Language Liberalism Freethought Birds Verbing Weirds Language only if you're expecting it to work in a simple way. This is a special case of the more general truth that Language Weirds. Only when a republic's life is in danger should a man uphold his government when it is in the wrong. There is no other time. The church says Earth is flat; but I have seen its shadow on the moon, and I have more confidence in a shadow than the church. If we can't find Heaven, there are always bluejays.

Snowbirds
We got snow today. Actually, we are getting snow - it's still coming down as I type. Here are a few of the birds who came by.
A Tufted titmouse at the heated bird bath
A Brown thrasher
A pair of well-insulated Mourning doves
Three Northern cardinals
A male Eastern towhee...
... and his mate, accompanied by a White-throated sparrow
Northern mockingbird
Another White-throated sparrow and another Tufted titmouse
A male House finch
Eight male Northern cardinals and at least five females
