They even got on Google Maps.

Oh, my goodness, this is brilliant:

Firefox crop circle!

(via this thread at Making Light)

In other news, on Sunday December 10th, I will be confirmed in the Episcopal Church here in Tennessee. :-) For someone who "doesn't believe in joining churches" (as I've said how many times, and still believe), and was raised as low-church as it is possible to get, joining the Anglicans may seem odd, but it is such a great place for me to be right now. And even more than how wonderful and sweet and loving my darling new church here is, I would like to toss garlands of flowers and thanks in the direction of the guy who runs the universe for how much happier and saner I am right now than I was this time ten years ago, or even five years ago. This flood of warm fuzzies and goofy thankfulness brought to you by me trying to describe my senior year in high school to someone, and realizing the huge absense of emotional and mental stress I have now by comparison. Woohoo! And St Chris's, I love you. "Safe, warm, happy" is on my confirmation banner for a reason. :D (In Ragi, shutupshutup.)

Also, the solar-system tour from the game SecondLife is pretty damn cool. Just saying.

Somehow I'm not surprised that the Firefox thing took place in Oregon. Just makes sense to me somehow. Oh you silly OSU students and your crazy ideas.

And early congratulations on the confirmation. My confirmation is the 16th (though I'm Catholic, not Episcopalian), and while I'm not entirely sure about it, I'm better off being confirmed even if I never go to church again than not confirmed at all.

Congrats on your confirmation too! I dithered about mine for ages, and then finally decided that I would probably regret it if I didn't--I couldn't stand not to go through with it with the rest of the group, who are all really interesting and sweet people whom I don't want to stop hanging out with now even though confirmation classes are over. (We shanghaied a bunch of them out to lunch today, and really will have to do it again sometime. Church people one wants to hang out with? I have got to stop being so shocked at that...)

*glomps* Best wishes to you! And, happy Advent! Church was all bright purple today, with the first Sunday of Advent thing, and all candles and lights and stuff. Oldskool liturgy, too, which I like less than the newer stuff, but eh. Fun still...
