   The Red Sox, Father, really? When it’s clear the Phillies will be taking their title home to Philadelphia again in a few weeks?

   I did the same thing, Father! I watched the Red Sox-Angels game to see who my Yankees will face once they’ve finished their Twinkie appetizers!

   Well Father…I figured at some point I would have some great theological disagreement with you…

   One question: when viewing on a small screen, are the Sox less disappointing?

   GO Yanks!

   Sorry…I’m a little tired and out of it…

   Father, which saint is depicted in your traveling statuary? THANKS.

   St. Peter as the statue near the Altar of the Confession in the Basilica of St. Peter.

   Hey, St. Peter ‘the Rock’ and the Boston Red Sox! Cool!

   But the Yankees are gonna win the World Series!

   Thanks Jeffry. My doc is changing all of my medications around and it’s plain to see why they don’t want me to drive right now.

   Technology is wonderful. It has allowed Fr Z to be a daily read and has served as some consolation that many people share similar perspectives as to the Faith and the liturgy.
   Go Phils

   Personally, I have two statues of St. Paul: one for the road, and one on our home altar.

   My wife and I are “old fashioned” by almost any standard in that we still have flip phones and would do without them if we could get a “land line.” I agree that technology has come a long “ways” and that it does have many practical applications.

    I’m curious: what’s the sound like on those iPhones?

    The Red Sox? Say it ain’t so, Father.

    I love listening to the Phillies on the radio. Not quite as special without Harry the K calling the games, but still one of life’s best simple pleasures.

    Red Sox Father? I knew there was something saintly about you.

    So, how did Torii Hunter’s dinger look like on the small screen?

    My office mate was at the game last night and he said that homer was a monster shot. Oh yeah, and he has a case of laryngitis this morning.

    As bad as it is to root for the Red Sox, I’m sure it’s only a venial sin.

    Re: “My wife and I are “old fashioned” by almost any standard in that we still have flip phones….”

    I’ve never owned a cellphone. Y’all are amateurs.

    Sigh. An acquaintance of mine recently wrote a book about somebody who’d been totally out of circulation since 1995. She went to great lengths to show how hopelessly behind this person was, to the point that she couldn’t keep a job. Blah blah blah.

    The problem was, all these “essential” 2009 things she had to learn were things that you really don’t need to do. (Also, this person had already had a cellphone and computer for several years back in 1995, which put her well ahead of most.) Granted, both she and her character live in a big city in California. and lots of her friends live in Silicon Valley. Even so, it was way, way exaggerated.

    I’ll accept the amateur label. What I meant was that we (my wife and I) wouldn’t have a cell phone either save for the fact that we can’t get a land line.

    The piece of technology that will still be around in three years’ time is the Pentel pencil in the foreground!

    As much as I hate to admit it as a native Bostonian, I think the Yankees are going to win the World Series.
