About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

This REALLY helps! And it’s great coffee (and tea)
I use this when I travel both in these USA and abroad. Very useful. Fast enough for Zoom. I connect my DMR (ham radio) through it. If you use my link, they give me more data. A GREAT back up.

In view of the rapidly changing challenges I now face, I would like to add more $10/month subscribers. Will you please help?

If you travel internationally, this is a super useful gizmo for your mobile internet data. I use one. If you get one through my link, I get data rewards.

I knew Animaniacs would inspire some to greatness someday!
Outstanding! I was grinning ear to ear as I listened to the Saint Song. I hope our Pastor, Fr. Haugan learns it quickly, as he is a whiz at reciting this type of stuff…
“I knew Animaniacs would inspire some to greatness someday!”
As one who has learned Yakko’s World (I’ve even added new lyrics for the nations that have since emerged) and is currently learning Wakko’s America, this song is certainly in the Animaniacs “tradition”. I love that show.
Future Priest
Animaniacs?! Try Gilbert & Sullivan, circa 1879.
Nice to see some younger Catholics here, though!
I’ll put it in my ipod
It might well be a modern composition, but I think the subject is serious. It is like a new litany dedicated to the Saints. The fact that it is upbeat and energetic is a plus. Even in a Church now 2000 years old, there is still room for new music. I just don’t want to see it at Mass!
I love how he used “I am the very model of a Modern Major General”!
Excellent song. I love how it uses the tune from Pirates of Penezus. Thanks for sharing again.
wolskerj: Next thing you’ll tell me is that somebody else invented Elmer Fudd’s “Kill the Wabbit!” song from Looney Tunes’ “What’s Opera, Doc.” ;)
The provenance is Gilbert & Sullivan, by way of Tom Lehrer\’s Elements Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYW50F42ss8
haha! Thanks for posting that Father. That got a grin outta me!
Awesome. You should see how it is like the song “The Elemants
sorry “The Elements”
