“obliquity of the ecliptic is the
reason for the season.“

On today, tomorrow, and the next 180 or so days, have a wonderful day that is now longer than the day before.  If there’s anything else going on this weekend… well, have fun.  Hopefully you are warm, fed, and with loved ones.

Oh, and if you celebrate Christmas, here’s a traditional Icelandic Christmas song for you, covered by Sigur Rós [courtesy of SR’s official webpage]:

• ég fæ jólagjöf (original) <- listen to this one first
• ég fæ jólagjöf (Sigur Rós’s cover, live in 1999) <- much different

♪♫ ég fæ jolagjöf
jólajólagjöf
einn pakka frá afa og ömmu
og líka frá pabba og mömmu ♪♫

And finally… don’t eat the red snow…

~Dan – np: Dave Douglas & Brass Ecstasy – Spirit Moves
