This blog falls into the category of whimsical, but when I learn something new, no matter how useless, I like to share it! And there’s an application, too, I think:

Just because I haven’t heard of it, doesn’t mean it’s not real.

Check out this recent weather forecast from the Weather Prediction Center, the official site of the National Weather Service:

Elsewhere, Freeze Watches and Warnings are in effect for much of the Florida Peninsula for tonight. Much of the state will remain mostly clear and frigid tonight with the chance for scattered to isolated falling iguanas…

Say what? It turns out that since iguanas are cold-blooded, temperatures below 40 degrees paralyze them temporarily, and if they’re up in a tree when that happens, they fall out. They’re not dead, and people should stay away from them because some of them are big, and when they wake up, they can hurt you. I would also think they can hurt you if they fall on you! Hence the warning.

And again, just because I haven’t heard of something, doesn’t mean it’s not real.

And it happened that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the inland country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples. And he said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” And they said, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” (Acts 19.1, 2, ESV)

Wow. That sparks a thought… More tomorrow.
