...seems a bit obvious to title this thing, but hey, I'm not really sweating it. Apologize, but under the gun. I had this huge plan to post my Best of Brooklyn Botanicas list, but well, had cold feet and thought I would sit on it for another week.There is this part where I explain that I was conceived in a rainforest notorious for UFO activity and I am on the fence on if I want to share that with WFMU blog readers or not.
So yeah, I'll tell the story in the afternoon in the comments, but this thing is beautiful. Giant statue of the Stella Maris in Windsor, Ohio.
More pics inside!
I took these pics last summer, we were visiting rural Ohio for my wife's family reunion. I kept hoping lasers would start shooting out of Mary's eyes.

More pics here.
Not really sorry I haven't posted anything lately, been really busy with life. What have I been up to? Well, moved to New Orleans a few weeks ago and still getting situated. Started researching a future blog post dealing with the Spiritual churches down here, which are similar to the Spiritualist churches - talk to the dead, oo-ee-oo. I just watched a cool documentary about Ravi Shankar called Raga, that was really neat. Have listened to Jon Nicholson, aka SSPS's set on this past My Castle of Quiet a few times, man, what a talent. Blah blah blah, I, me, mine here. Have a great Thanksgiving.
Oooo, I wanna know about the best Brooklyn botanicas, definitely...

Is this anywhere near where the "touchdown Jesus" used to be?
