Student Desk with Mid-Evil Theme

Speaking of collaborations, someone can help a young knight receive swimming lessons merely by buying his "Student Desk with Mid-Evil Theme." As the Craigslist ad explains, "The front of the desk has been fitted and painted to hold swords or other items on the hooks... $25.00 goes towards swim lessons." A perfect synthesis of text and image? I think so.

The end of a collaboration

We first learned of the end of this collaboration in the Harrison, VA newspaper last week. I am sorry to report that Lee, of the Mennonite Comedy Duo Ted & Lee, committed suicide last week. Read the story in the Mennonite Weekly here.

This story informed us of a phenomenon of which we had not previously known: The Mennonite comedy circuit.

The duo's comedy is also available on U-Tube.
