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.

I was telling the family about this. The only reason I remembered was that I noted that the date was St. Joseph’s Feast Day. Wonderful link, RichR, I think I will show them that as well.
I hope the skies are clear here tonight so that I can see it.
What does this mean??? Super Moon? sounds scary…. Earthquakes, in diverse places. Tsunamis, the sea and the waves roaring. The Earth shaken to her foundations. wars, rumours of wars. Radiation clouds spreading across the land and Sea, and now “Super Moon”…. Ah yes living in the Endtimes is exhilirating! I would dare to say its downright stimulating…
Excellent view of the super moon on a very clear night here in Southern England.
Pretty view outside. It’s just a little closer. This happens every few years….and no earthquakes or catastrophes happened then. EOTW people need to find a new occurrence to scare dummies with.
Pretty cloudy here but you can still see it. The tides should be higher or lower.
