They were scarce for a while, but are getting more active, I think.
And many thanks to RF who used my amazon wish list to send Joseph Pearce’s Through Shakespeare’s Eyes: seeing the Catholic presence in the plays. I read Clare Asquith’s book a while ago and found many of her examples compelling.

Father,
While I do not expect you to know what it is, my family plays Webkinz. Basically, you buy the plush pet, which comes with a “secret” code. You go to the website, enter the code and “adopt” the pet. You give it a room, feed it, play online games with it, etc. Kind of fun for the kids (and, yes, myself).
I recently adopted a chickadee, and his name is Fr.Z. Just had to let you know.
That’s great, Amy. Can you earn a biretta for your Fr. Z.?
Welcome back Mr. Finch! Hope to see you very soon on the web cam!
