Thus neither nature nor man are to be sent to an everlasting death. Resurrecting forces are at work: the sun comes up again each morning after passing the night 'under the holy plain' teotlalli iitic, that is to say, in Hades; Venus dies and is reborn; the maize dies and is reborn; the whole world of plants, struck dead in the dry season, arises more beautiful and younger each season of the rains, just as the moon dwindles in the sky and returns according to the rhythm of its phases.

So what you're telling me, James, is that we better watch out for the Aztecs? Cause when they come back they're gonna be pissed?
Have you looked at our country's changing demographics recently? The Aztecs are back!
I'm not too worried though. Nowadays, everyone pretty much is pissed all the time. Atleast on the blogs any way.
therefore grow beards and look like the "ones" they've been waiting for. is that really what it took was a beard...
what if you tried real hard and it still won't grow?
The Aztecs - like the Balrog - have fallen. It is time to fear the Yeti.
The yeti. Now that's a guy that's got the beard thing down. Not very Aztecan, though, is he? Not as if he was very tropics-friend, is it?
In other news, it's a good thing that Voltaire is dead, cause my wife said she'd leave me for him if he was alive. Apparently he's hot? Something about the hair and cleft chin.
...and the way he bashfully stares...ewh
I remember reading voltaire's utopia (I forgot what it's titled, but it's on my shelf). I liked it. I have different values, obviously.
