Tombotombo: A night visitor

Last updated on: September 29, 2010 at 9:52 am By Cathleen Falsani

the night before last, we had a special overnight house guest. a huge dragonfly, same colors as the one on the cover of sin boldly, was beating itself silly against our patio light. we gently lifted it into the bug box my darling aunt patti made for me when i was a little girl. our winged messenger spent the night in the box until sunrise, when we released it and if flew high and away toward the ocean. listen to...

A Little (More) Happy: Mr. Tom Waits nominated to the R&R Hall of Fame

Last updated on: September 29, 2010 at 8:34 am By Cathleen Falsani

[wpvideo LhjMaIlC] Tom Waits is among our very favorite artists here at GGHQ. So we were THRILLED to hear this morning that he’d been nominated to the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame for possible induction this year. Waits is a true iconoclast. We love him so. This is what the RnRHoF had to say about him: Only one songwriter could be covered by the Ramones (“I Don’t Want to Grow Up”) and the Eagles (“Old 55”). Beginning with his first album... Read more

GODSTUFF: Why be less bad when we can be 100 percent good?

Last updated on: September 28, 2010 at 1:32 pm By Cathleen Falsani

While I’m no militant environmentalist by any stretch of the imagination (I recycle; I don’t compost), I do considered myself something of a tree-hugger. There’s even a sticker on my car that says, “God is Green.” It’s a statement of faith. Still, when talk turns toward carbon footprints and global warming, lately a certain melancholy — almost a vague acedia — has begun to shadow my heart. It all seems so … Sisyphean. We’ve abused Mother Earth and she’s not... Read more

Last updated on: September 28, 2010 at 11:15 am By Cathleen Falsani

The Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life today released the fascinating (some might say disconcerting) results of a survey on religion knowledge. The headline you’ll see on most stories about the survey will say something like ATHEISTS KNOW MORE ABOUT RELIGION THAN CHRISTIANS DO. The study’s executive summary begins thusly: Atheists and agnostics, Jews and Mormons are among the highest-scoring groups on a new survey of religious knowledge, outperforming evangelical Protestants, mainline Protestants and Catholics on questions about the...
