Brigid ends her 30 year run as a Eucharistic Minister
Yesterday morning; the 10:45 was her last Mass. I got a little choked up receiving communion from her. Brigid’s decision had nothing to do with any issues with the Church (we do love Holy Name of Mary) or any clergy. She just felt it was time to end. In a pinch if she were at…

“Black Lives Matter blasts Dems as ‘Party of Hypocrites’”
Not happy at all with the anointing of Kamala Harris. They think it's undemocratic and the Party is dominated by "party bosses." “Installing Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee and an unknown vice president without any public voting process would make the modern Democratic Party a party of hypocrites,” BLM’s X (formerly Twitter) account wrote…

“A New Arms Race. On the growing threat of nuclear war.”
This is from Commonweal, a Catholic publication. The author is 1,000% right. At the so called Trump-Biden debate fiasco, Biden said "Climate change is the #1 existential threat". Ugh wrongo. Both parties are terrible on this (Military Industrial Complex!). All it takes is one accident, or one crazy man (and there are plenty of them…

WSJ: IRS can’t find all those wealthy tax cheats
Interesting editorial and not a surprise. Next target sure to be self employed people and small businesses earning $200,000 to $2,000,000. Everyone knows those SOB's are cheating – the IRS is sure of it… Unlike bank robbers, IRS auditors tend to look where the money isn’t. That’s what happened after the agency started scrutinizing more…
