Summer Solstice Humor

The big news in the world of fine literature is the release of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, which officially hits bookstores today. It is the latest installment in the ongoing adventures of a young wizard as he seeks to master sorcery and magic.

Oddly enough, today also marks the Summer Solstice, which is considered a major pagan holiday.

Coincidence? Or part of some vast, unchristian conspiracy meant to corrupt our impressionable youth and prepare them for a life of devil worship? One can only pray that such is not the case.

Still, just to play it safe, I'm going to sacrifice a goat to appease the Sun gods.
