A Sporting Christmas on Twitter
Merry Christmas
Santa Claus spends 350 days a year shoveling snow in the North Pole. For the last few days he tried to do some sporting activities — golfing, surfing, skateboarding, mountain biking, even rock climbing.
And of course he’s gonna check his list twice, whether those NHL guys are naughty or nice. Today’s elves are really sexy and that is why Satan steals Christmas by diverting our focus.

A group of nuns, monks and priests performed a routine to disco music while wearing traditional robes and habits. The group is on a tour of Italian discos and nightclubs to spread the message of Christianity to young people.

religious state of the blogosphere
The 2008 State of the Blogosphere is out. Among other things Technorati is taking a look at the most popular topics, finding out that three-quarters of bloggers cover three or more topics. 19% of all blogs cover religion/spirituality and 16% cover sports. Religion beats sports. That is hard to imagine compared to TV ratings. Is the blogosphere really that different?
