One hour late.

Hmm.

This might require more investigation. I'll put in a filthy hack for now and prod it more when I've got a couple of hours to sit and stare at it.

Yup. Giant crosses for Houston. They're ever so aggressively ostentatious and all about the external symbols of faith. (sarcasm)Exactly the sort of thing Jesus always insisted upon.(/sarcasm)

And for a year or more beforehand, the local "community church" (which is, of course, what churches with stadium-like sanctuaries seating tens of thousands of interchangeable anonymous worshippers always seem to call themselves) had billboards proudly trumpeting their imminent construction, with the headline "leaving our mark on Houston". Their words, not mine. Ayup. "Lifting our legs and peeing on fire hydrants For Jesus."
