Quote of the Day: “You were killing out of your love for God.” — Inese Radzins, my Christian Tradition professor, explaining the rationale behind the crusades
I’m surprised it’s been a week since my last post. I should probably close the book on that last post. The good news is that I’m not pissed off anymore. The bad news is the bug I was coming down with turned into a real mother of a cold. I ended up losing my voice for a few days. At this point I’m feeling much better, with just a little runny nose and a hacky cough left. I still haven’t gotten that Spanish test back, but as for the Religion & Science midterm: 83%. That’s about what I thought I’d get.

Reconciliation Week ended on Saturday. To clue you in to what it’s all about, every year here at FSU for the past five years now we’ve had this thing called Resurrection Week. The past four years it’s been during Holy Week (the week before Easter) and it’s been a time for all the various campus ministries to come together, to be united.

I want to talk about hockey for a minute. It’s not something I do that much but just bear with me. As you may know, the NHL has had a lockout and has not been playing this season. Supposedly the drop-dead date (the date when the season will be officially cancelled if an agreement is not reached) is this weekend.
But get this: if an agreement is somehow reached (as unlikely as that is) the NHL will play a 28-game regular season and will keep their usual 16-team playoff format, this according to an article on ESPN.com.
