		<title>Friday Five on Tuesday: Thanksgiving Thoughts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Cure
Lying around all day
with some strange new deep blue
weekend funk, I&#8217;m not really asleep
when my sister calls
to say she&#8217;s just hung up
from talking with Aunt Bertha
who is 89 and ill but managing
to take care of Uncle Frank
who is completely bed ridden.
Aunt Bert says
it&#8217;s snowing there in Arkansas,
on Catfish Lane, and she hasn&#8217;t been
able to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=auntietiffy.wordpress.com&blog=5385118&post=596&subd=auntietiffy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>The Booties</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, I accidentally bought the booties pictured below. The good news is that they are normally $130 and I got them for $42. The bad news is, they&#8217;re Jessica Simpson. I loathe her and all she stands for, and this is not just about the Tony Romo debacle. I really loathe her father more than [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=auntietiffy.wordpress.com&blog=5385118&post=593&subd=auntietiffy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Got questions?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am currently in the land of suburban megachurches. I have to say I&#8217;m not a fan. I am the product of one, so I can say that. I have absolutely NOTHING positive to say about them. I think they&#8217;re a breeding ground for the mega-egos of the most dysfunctional pastors, they discourage openness and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=auntietiffy.wordpress.com&blog=5385118&post=590&subd=auntietiffy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Friday the Thirteenth Five</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sophia writes:
The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskevidekatriaphobia, a word derived from the concatenation of the Greek words Paraskeví (Παρασκευή) (meaning Friday), and dekatreís (δεκατρείς) (meaning thirteen), attached to phobía (φοβία) (meaning fear). The term triskaidekaphobia derives from the Greek words &#8220;tris&#8221;, meaning &#8216;three&#8217;, &#8220;kai&#8221;, meaning &#8216;and&#8217;, and &#8220;deka&#8221;, meaning &#8216;ten&#8217;. the whole [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=auntietiffy.wordpress.com&blog=5385118&post=587&subd=auntietiffy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

There&#8217;s a new baby on my street, a double PK whose Mom and Dad are Methodist pastors and church planters. I&#8217;m hoping to go over and meet her today.

In honor of BE Three I thought I&#8217;d offer up a Friday Five of lifesavers.

I&#8217;ve got plenty of things marinating on the insane right-wing rage directed at our President, on the lies they&#8217;re telling about health care reform, on dubious fashion trends.

		<title>Another View of ACORN</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yes, yes, I know. ACORN bad, corrupt, hookers, blah blah blah. Sure, it&#8217;s an imperfect institution with some bad apples, for sure. But when you look at it as compared to most government contractors, it&#8217; s practically a group of altar boys and girls. This study is a look at how the media has played [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=auntietiffy.wordpress.com&blog=5385118&post=568&subd=auntietiffy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
