Out of the Blue

The curtain is about to fall on the final act in the saga of our Thanksgiving leftovers. We'll make a quick trip to my dad's to share the last of the turkey salad and bestow a gift of the last of the gravy, which would just go to waste if we kept it.

Gravy Links! Thanks Mike Martinez and Ant.

Yeah, that's pretty cool. Good way to dispose of a body if you ever need to.

I recall (vaguely) reading the Narnia books as a kid, but I don't recall the Xtian slant to them. Perhaps I was just too young to get the references. Anyone know of any specific examples of what they're talking about, or is it just the overall "good vs. evil" vibe? Is it some form of subtle indoctrination going on here? Why are the Xtians all for this, yet thing Harry Potter is evil incarnate?
