There are 2 S's in Superfluous.
But there is only 1 in Asinine.
This is a mysterious universe in which we live.

How Sweet the Sound
Trolling around the internet this morning, I found this article: http://tv.ign.com/articles/114/1147540p1.html
That's right, Beavis and Butthead are coming back to MTV! I am reminded that there is a God in heaven, and He loves us very much.

Do you ever wonder...
Do you ever wonder how Honi the Circle Drawer got his name? I just stumbled across this guy while reading Craig Keener's John commentary. I suppose I could search him up on Wikipedia, but where's the fun in that?
I like to think that Honi the Circle Drawer was antiquity's "North Carolina Camel Jockey." The NCCJ was a name graffitied on the walls of bathroom stalls at truck stops all across the country 20 years or so ago. I learned about him as I was going on trips with my dad in his semi truck during summer break when I was 12 years old or so. After going trucking with dad during those summers, I developed a love for bathroom graffiti which endures to this day.
So in my mind, you could have been traveling around in Honi's day and have to make a pit stop behind a rock or tree to do your business and as you're passing the time you look over and there's a circle drawn on the rock and you say, "Honi has been here!"
Honi probably got in trouble when he was growing up and still in school. After the second or third time he was sent home from school for carving circles in his desk, the name just stuck.
