The Tardy Cherub
Cupid snoozed—his alarm betrayed, Wings askew, his bow mislaid. Love showed up a moment late, Blushing, breathless, tempting fate. Turns out hearts still fell just fine— Even tardy arrows hit on time.

Erwin Lutzer offers some helpful instruction on how NOT to read your Bible in 2013.
A statistical snapshot of 2012.
Here's a list of stuff that got banned in 2012. Some things should be banned, but others . . . ?
InfoWars suggests "16 Things about 2013 That Are Really Going to Stink." Let's check back periodically to see if they are right.
Wikipedia says "Acetylcholinesterase, also known as AChE;or acetylhydrolase, is a serine protease that hydrolyzes the neurotransmitteracetylcholine. AChE is found at mainly neuromuscular junctions and cholinergic brain synapses, where its activity serves to terminatesynaptic transmission. It belongs to carboxylesterase family of enzymes." I just think it's a party waiting to happen.

“Keep constant guard over your perceptions, for it is no small thing you are protecting, but your respect, trustworthiness and steadiness, peace of mind, freedom from pain and fear, in a word your freedom. For what would you sell these things?” EPICTETUS, DISCOURSES, 4.3.6 b –8

But how does one wish on falling star? Once you see it, it's gone before the wish or prayer can be made! The answer is simple: meteor shower. That's how to get your wish.
