It’s finally here.

The shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere and the longest day of the year in the southern hemisphere.

Today is the winter solstice.

Hug a druid.

Because if you hug enough druids, the world will not end, which it is supposed to do today according to the Mayan calendar, or perhaps more accurately, according to our having reached the last day ever in the Mayan calendar.

But as Pat -- an Arkansas stamper -- might (and often does) say, tomorrow is also a day.

Keep your fingers crossed.
