Who knew? Elizabeth May, Green Party leader, preaching a sermon on the environment and Jesus! (Hat tip to the inestimable Small Dead Animals)

Tantrum averted. Phew. Maggie won’t have to go out and buy a big lollipop.
How sad. We lose one Belinda and gain another.

Any of you wanting a good daily read, both interesting and funny, check out Mark Steyn’s coverage of Conrad Black’s trial, here.
For the sake of notable quotes, here’s why I hope Lord Black comes out victorious; overcoming his accusers so he can keep making public statements like this:
