Opposum – Originally uploaded by mountainpath2001. I was just outside and heard something rustling in the leaves in the back yard. Grabbed a flashlight, and went to investigate. It was an opposum, bigger than the one above. Every once in a while, I find an opposum out on the deck eating cat food. Normally there is a mutual I’m-eating-leave-me-alone policy between the ‘possum and the cats. Usually it scurries off into the fig tree and pretends I don’t see it….
A reminder that I’ll be hosting the Progressive Faith Bloggers Carnival this Sunday. Send me those links at heidi (at) virushead (dot) net. The deadline for member submissions is Saturday noon EST. This will give me the time to read, comment, and post on Sunday. Join us if you’d like to participate.
I’ve decided to go with a new service – Feedblitz – to deliver my rss feed in email format. This one looks like a big improvement. I was able to import my subscriptions from Bloglet (where delivery was too unreliable), so anyone who was getting emails from there will notice a change. If you would like to get updates on VirusHead blog entries, sign up.

Wishing you lots of love and warmth for Valentine’s Day!
Please view this video and listen to the song by James Blunt. I love James Blunt’s music (especially "You’re Beautiful" and "Goodbye My Lover") but I hadn’t heard "No Bravery." The song is even more powerful now in terms of Iraq than it was for Bosnia, where he was stationed when he wrote it. What I noticed most about the video montage is the sadness in everyone’s eyes, including those of American soldiers. Support our troops. End this illegal war….
