I am glad to see that my critics here, instead of claiming that I am wrong as they were saying just a year ago, now claim that though I am right,...
Not to worry, Carol. I can pretty easily tell when someone is familiar with my site and when they are shooting a little from the hip. You were...
Love it, CrewDog! I have said before that you remind me sometimes of General LaHire, St. Joan of Arc's tough and earthy comrade-in-arms. He tried...
Hi Padraig, I did not intend this as a back swing against people who are generously preparing now to help others in need - which has always been...
I have asked the Lord to send St. Joseph to watch over and comfort Brian, to make him a sign of hope to all he encounters.
Hi Mother Superior. In defense of Julia, I thought it was pretty clear she was being sarcastic - suggesting that if someone was going to violate...
Thanks Malachi. I think I have made it clear what a valuable resource this site is. Some people prefer a Wild West Saloon atmosphere - and I must...
Good response, Joe. But I have to say that Mac is the funniest guy I frequently disagree with. Even back when he was giving me some hard knocks,...
What I was told decades ago was that "the Storm would break through North Korea but would not be centered in North Korea." The fulfillment of that...
I loved this when it first came out in the 60's - but I was a kid then...and had no idea I would eventually resemble it...or about the squirrels,...
He is probably poking both Mac and me with a sharp stick, which is why we both look so sour.
Ha! Fr. Mac and me - together at last!
I like to think of it as a Christmas miracle, Mac ;-)
Mac, you have hit on what I have long thought...that Popes St. John Paul, Benedict, and Francis are a trilogy of sorts, the three Popes of the...
In my big, brawling family, Mac, we often express our affection for each other through insult humor. Don't leave. You feel like family to me.
I am deeply sorry to hear that some are focusing their anger on Joby. But the hate mail will pass - the good he has done from a generous spirit...
I featured Quis ut Deus' request on my site yesterday. I had a couple of notes asking if a wasn't facilitating a soft invasion of Europes by...
Everything I ever read about him said that, despite the roles he played, he was a wonderful, decent and kind man.
I think that is from "Tony Soprano: the Early Years."
Ha Padraig! You are older than me (by about three months, anyway). Happy Birthday!
:-)
Man, you gotta know it, Mac. And I appreciate that when you take the occasional shot at me, you do it for what I have said, not what I have not....
And Fatima, it is fine that you consider it a failed prophecy. I did NOT say it would end Christmas as we know it: you and some others did. I said...
Fatima, we have covered this before - a few times. It does not offend me if you choose to disbelieve I am sent. It does offend me that you keep...
I had the pleasure of having breakfast this morning with Mother Superior7. She was in Denver for a bit, came to Mother Cabrini Shrine in Golden...
Congratulations, Mac. I have a deep admiration for those who have an heroic openness to and welcoming of new life in these benighted times.
To obey legitimate authority in the lawful exercise of its authority - whether it is objectively correct...and to honor legitimately negotiated...
You're funning with me, Mac. To desire to do something a legitimate agreement prevents you from, even to seek an honorable way to do both is...
Actually, that wasn't my "latest," earth, but a clarification and correction of a comment I made in 2014. I have written numerous times that the...
Don't feel out of your depth, Padraig. This is a measured, sober and honest criticism of the proposal. It was pleasing to see a serious critique...
