Swine flu and the Holy Water Stoup

November 23, 2009 · 2 Comments

I see that some Italians have invented a Holy Water electronic dispenser so that we are not all spreading germs by dipping our fingers in the Holy Water stoup at the door.  Don’t they know that Holy Water is germ-free by virtue of it being holy?

Thanks Ship of Fools. It has been a while since I dropped in but as ever you had me smiling.

Now I lay me down to sleep

I pray the Lord my soul to keep

If I should die before I wake

throw my journals in the lake.

Someone kindly sent me this link to a Guide for Altar Servers.

Havign been an altar server for some considerable number of years, I found it extremely helpful. Not sure about the sandals in summer though?

Inner Peace

May 11, 2009 · 3 Comments

I am passing this on to you because it definitely worked for me today, and we all could probably use more calm in our lives.

Some doctor on television this morning said that the way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things you have started.

So I looked around my house to see things I’d started and hadn’t finished and, before leaving the house this morning I finished off a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of shhhardonay, a bodle of Baileys, a butle of vocka, a pockage of Prunglies, tha marinder of botl of Prozic and Valum pscriptins, the res of the Chesescke and a box a chocolets.

Yu haf no idr who fkin gud I fel. Preas sen dis orn to dem yu fee ar in ned ov inr pece.

Happy Mothering Sunday

March 22, 2009 · Leave a Comment

We took a break from the dark days of Lent this morning to concentrate on Refreshment and Holy Humour. And what fun we had! Well, I did anyway. We had googly-eye specs, fake dog poo, a snake in a jar, and a squirty lighter.  (Asperges twice, in fact.) Lots of jokes too and all clean.  Here was my favourite offering from Deanna…

Why are pirates like pirates?

Because they aaaarrrrrrr.

Or how about this one…

What is brown and sounds like a church bell?

Dung!

Oh how we laughed.
