 This was a photo I considered for the Blurry Mess. It's a little too snap shottish, but still a fun image, I think. The halo is created by the ceiling fan, which happened to be perfectly centered behind his (my friend's) head, while the light is snaking out on the sides of his ears - not unlike horns... Which lead me to find this poem

by Emily Dickinson

The Devil -- had he fidelity
Would be the best friend --
Because he has ability --
But Devils cannot mend --
Perfidy is the virtue
That would but he resign
The Devil -- without question
Were thoroughly divine
