Dom DeLuise, 8/1/1933-5/4/2009

Perhaps one of the only reasons I actually suffered all the way through Cannonball Run 2.

Rest in Peace.

Voting For The Cannonball Catholic Blog Awards Has Opened

And right now, I'm getting spanked by Jay Anderson in the category "Best Potpourri of Popery."

FIX THAT.

Upon The Feast Of St. Florian

If that's all the bigger the fire was, I could have put it out with one bucket too...

Upon The Feast Of St. Athanasius

Arianism never had a chance.

Who'da Thunk It Was Possible To Outspend Dubya?

This is why I raise chickens.

Upon The Feast Of St. Joseph The Worker

From the Shrine of St. Joseph comes the following prayer:

Joseph, by the work of your hands
and the sweat of your brow,
you supported Jesus and Mary,
and had the Son of God as your fellow worker.

Teach me to work as you did,
with patience and perseverance, for God and
for those whom God has given me to support.
Teach me to see in my fellow workers
the Christ who desires to be in them,
that I may always be charitable and forbearing
towards all.

Grant me to look upon work
with the eyes of faith,
so that I shall recognize in it
my share in God's own creative activity
and in Christ's work of our redemption,
and so take pride in it.

When it is pleasant and productive,
remind me to give thanks to God for it.
And when it is burdensome,
teach me to offer it to God,
in reparation for my sins
and the sins of the world.

Take that, communists.

Dear White House: Let Joe Biden talk more. His remarks are perpetual humorous light in these dark and humorless days.
