Religious holidays are odd things. They are so many different things to so many different people. I have no idea if anyone reading this will be celebrating Easter this year, or if they are, whether they will sit awhile and think about the deeper significance of the holy day (where do you think the word holiday comes from, hmmn?) but I hope they do. We'll be watching our kids run around picking up eggs. I'll be the guy with the Bloody Mary in his hand.
So, that said, if you are celebrating Easter this weekend, I wish you a happy, peaceful and meaningful holy day.
And maybe, just maybe, you'll spare a thought for Terry Schiavo. Mark at Irish Elk has provided very thought provoking coverage.

Posted by: Wicked H at March 26, 2005 02:12 PMHappy Easter to you and yours, RP, and here's a thought about Terry Schiavo: I hope someone has the decency to slip her a shot so she can die in peace and dignity. I am so fed up with the way this has been turned into a media circus when it is obvious that tere really is only one decent thing to do here: euthanize her. Sorry, that's how I see it. Apologies if my POV pisses anyone else off. I hope you have a good day tomorrow.
