Crispy...Danish...?

Today, I was browsing the internet and came upon a synonym of Santa Claus and Father Christmas: Kriss Kringle. Then it occured to me that I didn't know what Kriss Kringle meant, or where it came from. And that was alarming.

First I tried the direct approach: finding the definition of 'Kriss' and 'Kringle'. The easy part was 'Kringle'. I came upon many definitions, such as a thin Danish pastry, slang for boss, or triple looped, disulphide linked protein domains. 'Kriss' it appears, has no definition except as a slang for "crisp, cool" or a whore.

Wikipedia gave me no extra information, other than backing up a kringle as a Danish pastry with a proud Danish history. (Mmm...Weinerbrod dough...)

Finally Google informs me that it's just a crazy olde German dialect of sorts for "Christ child".

Are Jesus Christ and Santa Claus the same person? Conspiracy!? */blasphemous ignorance*

Happy Pre-New Year's!? <-- (Should be an interrobang)

His accomplice flew in and stared at us for a few minutes.

They came together to deliberate, and literally watched us for 15 minutes straight.

I have good reason to believe that they are robotic furry animal spies sent by Santa Claus to check up on us.

On a related note,
Merry Holidays!!! and such.

I wonder if Friday will be a snow day. Not that it's particularily convenient. :(

Bite-sized portions

During one dinner, [Queen Elizabeth] sat next to a rather deaf and very dull admiral who regaled the Queen with naval stories, with especial reference to the condition of an old ship which had broken down. In an attempt to change the subject, the Queen enquired, "How is your dear sister?" -a question that the admiral obviously didn't hear, because he continued in the same naval vein, saying "She'll be alright when we've turned her over and scraped the barnacles off her bottom." The Queen's shoulders shook helplessly with laughter as she buried her face in her napkin.

Educationalists often deplore the use of abbreviated or slang words, and one of the most common used is Xmas, in place of Christmas. Wicked atheists have been blamed for using an X in the place of the word Christ, and thus "taking the Christ out of Christmas." In fact, the reverse is true. The X has been used by theologians for hundreds of years to denote the Greek letter chi, the first letter in the Greek spelling of Christ. The X represents Christ and the cross upon which he was crucified.

Punishment for sexual misconduct in 17th-century America was strict, with fines or imprisonment for adulterers and fornicators, and worse for convicted rapists. However, one cannot help feeling a little sorry for the joker Ralph Earle, who was fined 20 shillings in October 1663 for "drawing his wife in an uncivil manner on the snow."

I went to the doctor's for a check-up on my ultrasound results. My thyroid glands are officially fine, except the right one is a tad above average size. OK. I was also meant to get my flu shot. Somehow during the appointment the doctor though it would be prudent for me to get a blood test. He also decided that I should have it right then and there. So I had a blood shot on my left arm shortly followed by a flu shot on the same arm. Unfortunately, after that I stood up way too quickly and had a sweep of nausea from the screwed up levels of blood. ._O So...I did that "sit for ten minutes" thing. :P Now my left arm is numb from flu shot and irritated from blood test.

I still don't know my blood type and am really perplexed as to why none of my accessible birth records have the results or anything, according to my parents. And I still won't know because you need to pay a fee to get your blood type tested. Which my parents, who are supposed to know it in the first place but don't, don't want to pay for. =\
