#1 I don't usually comment, and my name is not Thiling Spaiger7838, but names don't really matter on the internet. I regularly read and appreciate Rantburg. Thanks, and Happy Easter.

#2 Just finished my now-annual "Passion of the Christ" DVD viewing. To all RB'ers - peace of a new world regenerated each and every year.

To our enemies: we won't turn the other cheek any more. And no - I don't blame the ancient Romans or even the current Jooooooos for Christ's death. It was fore-ordained by a higher authority than any of us can generate.

#10 Thanks for remembering! This is a day of staggering historical significance - and a very happy day. No more need for human or animal sacrifices - and a day to remember that no matter how awful we are or how much we've screwed up in life, we can start fresh, live on the sunny side and inherit a better world.

Happy Easter everyone. And happy Passover too!

#11 To the assorted Christians in the crowd:
He is Risen! Happy Easter!
To the Jews:
Next year in Jerusalem! Happy Passover!
To all our enemies, of whatever flavor:
Your skull is mine! Blood for the Blood God!

#16 My family is both of Christian and Jewish heritage, and, as a Rantburg Citizen, I wish all of us the best on this Easter holiday. By the way, my son's chickens lay nice brown and turquoise Easter eggs without being told.

#20 What a wonderful day -- here in the middle of the American Midwest the sun shone all day, and the crabapple trees are in lovely, scented bloom. May all the joys of the holidays be yours, O Fellow Rantburgers. And may those still held in the slavery of violence and evil leaders soon be free as we are, kept so by the rough men and women who have volunteered to stand guard while we celebrate. N Guard, 49 Pan, and the rest of our Rantburgers currently serving, thank you and those many others who kill people and break things -- and who also heal people and build things -- to make this world safer for us all. And the many Rantburgers whose uniformed phase may have ended but, by sharing of their knowledge and wisdom, do us another here at the 'Burg. And the rest of you, who know so much about such various subjects, and share freely that we may all become a bit wiser. I am honoured to know you all.

Chag Sameach! Happy Holiday!

#22 We went back to Buffalo to visit all the grandparents, RD. The trailing daughters actually had Spring Break at the right time -- first time we celebrated Passover with my parents since I left home, lo! these many years ago. ;-) I'll bake tomorrow, then we can have a proper tea party with whoever's about. Only it's Passover, so I'm a bit limited -- no scones or lemon pound cake until next week, I'm afraid.
