Multi-Media Extravaganza!

Yesterday I received an email from an old Juneau friend who now resides half-way around the world. Said friend had just received an email with the photo below from an unidentified person here in Juneau. So...an interesting news item from Juneau as reported by our correspondent in South Africa.

One is always suspicious of Photoshop jiggery-pokery in instances such as this; however the sincerity of the narrative as well as the shadow of the flag and staff in the snow convince me this is legit.


Saturday we took a little jaunt thru the dredge area, starting at the Mendenhall River Bridge following the trails about a mile and 3/4 out to the shore of the lake. It was gorgeous. But along the way...well lets face it, not everyone cleans up after their dogs, but these piles had....flags? Weird... so I got closer and thought I was gonna die.

Out came the camera!! Sarah Palin has begun her presidential campaign early. And as all things go, you start small and then build from there.....

I saw 4 of these in different locations in the dredge area.

Also received yesterday from Joan Kasson the following interesting video titled "A Pole Dancer with a Difference"

Finally, from today's Seattle Times a notice of a 'must see' episode of Nightline:

Satan debate taped here airs tonight on

Nightline

Seattle Times staff and newswires

Does Satan exist?

Tonight, ABC's Nightline airs a debate on that question that was taped in Seattle last week. The program pulls together a rather curious lineup — Seattle megachurch Pastor Mark Driscoll; alternative-medicine author Deepak Chopra; Annie Lobert, a former Las Vegas escort who founded Hookers for Jesus; and the Rev. Carlton Pearson, a former Pentecostal preacher from Tulsa who was branded a heretic for saying everyone — not just Christians — could go to heaven.

The 30-minute television show airs today at 11:35 p.m. local time on Channel 4.
