Sacrilege, or Practical?

It is currently -11*F with a windchill of -36*F. We're welcoming the sun from inside this year. Damn, it's cold!

PS: the high for today is 0...

Is there even a sun to welcome???

*peers out window*

I'd say practical is good, then again, I'm the atheist.

The gray got lighter in the East, we counted that. It matched the time the sun was supposed to come up, so it's all good. *g*

I think that's cheating. It was probably just a bran muffin.

Isn't it supposed to be the thought that counts? :D

Sense make not you.

Also, totally not cheating when you use astrological times and the colors still change. *nods*

Not if your gods are vengeful gods. If you have the nice ones, or even the understanding ones, it totally counts.

*snickers*

It's a joke from And the Band Played On when they were arguing hiv was blood borne... "Well I can't prove the sun won't turn into a bran muffin tomorrow, either."

So therefore it was just a *bright* bran muffin.

Okay, sense make now.

Random, completely unrelated question for a fic I am *finally* finishing: Would Ferretti refer to Jacob Carter as "Jacob" or "Colonel Carter" in a season 7 based fic? Or was Jacob a General? Shit, I don't remember... *pleading loock*

I was gonna say, technically it would be general.

Hmm. That's actually a really, really good question. You know, he'd probably say General Carter, since I think it's still proper to refer to a retired officer by their rank. And it is Ferretti. If he wasn't saying General he'd be saying Mister.

Whoo hoo! Thank you! There is actually a chance I'll finish this damn thing by the end of the year...

Oooooh, good point. Here's hoping the gods are not petulant today.
