Christian Carnival
In the wake of a nearly sleepless night spent following election returns, I'm just doing my best to get this posted. I was just going to throw up links but I hate to be a slacker. Instead I tried to find interesting pieces of art that relate (sometimes in very strange ways) to the title or content of the post. Each thumbnail is a link to a larger version, should you want to see a little more detail.
Christian Carnival - November 3, 2004
UPDATE: The next Christian Carnival will be at ChristWeb; details are available here.
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do [like blogging], do it all for the glory of God.

Good job. By the way, when I run my cursor over my entry, the text disappears. It seems to happen on my entry, Year of the Eucharist and Avenues of Service or Seats of Power.

I seem to be encountering the peek-a-boo bug in IE. Sometimes IE does that on floating divs. I made one wholesale set of changes which fixed it for the most part, although we still have issues on two items. Looks great in Firefox though!

I'm now a week behind on this, but events have conspired, and I've had less time to read these things than I would like. I am now done reading through last week's Christian Carnival, which returned for its 42nd edition...
This week's Catholic Carnival is hosted at "The Curt Jester". The theme is the Eucharist. This week's Christian Carnival is hosted at "King of Fools".
What with the election and all, I nearly forgot it was time for Christian Carnival XLII, up at King of Fools.
Christian Carnival #42 is up at King of Fools. Carnival of the Vanities #111 is up at Quibbles
