Remember that Veyron I was supposed to have won? Never did get it.
Still want it, though!

“He [Satan] will set up a counter-Church which will be the ape of the Church because, he the devil, is the ape of God. It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and emptied of its divine content. It will be a mystical body of the anti-Christ that will in all externals resemble the mystical body of Christ. In desperate need for God, whom he nevertheless refuses to adore, modern man in his loneliness and frustration will hunger more and more for membership in a community that will give him enlargement of purpose, but at the cost of losing himself in some vague collectivity.”
“Who is going to save our Church? Not our bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to you, the people. You have the minds, the eyes, and the ears to save the Church. Your mission is to see that your priests act like priests, your bishops act like bishops.”
- Fulton Sheen

A monthly subscription donation means I have steady income I can plan on. I put you my list of benefactors for whom I pray and for whom I often say Holy Mass.
In view of the rapidly changing challenges I now face, I would like to add more $10/month subscribers. Will you please help?

"But if, in any layman who is indeed imbued with literature, ignorance of the Latin language, which we can truly call the 'catholic' language, indicates a certain sluggishness in his love toward the Church, how much more fitting it is that each and every cleric should be adequately practiced and skilled in that language!" - Pius XI
"Let us realize that this remark of Cicero (Brutus 37, 140) can be in a certain way referred to [young lay people]: 'It is not so much a matter of distinction to know Latin as it is disgraceful not to know it.'" - St. John Paul II
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

I have enough spare parts to build a couple more Lotuses if you’re willing to take a step down…;)
Bryan is ahead of me. You can pop for an Elise for under $50K or do as my old roommate did and fix up tiny Europa for nearly nothing…
I’d have to deal with parking it. Hmmm…
It’s your birfday, and a lovely wish. God bless!
Is a Bugatti better than a Bugnini?
Mike Morrow says: Is a Bugatti better than a Bugnini?
Oh, yes.
But getting a Veyron as a gift would create new problems:
– how to pay for the gas?
– how to pay for the tires?
– hot to pay for the insurance???? That one has to be a whopper!
But all fall into that category where “if you have to ask….”
Is a Bugatti better than a Bugnini?
Well, Bugatti was the name of the long-serving executioner in the last years of the “temporal power”. He lived in Trastevere, and the firt indication of a public execution coming off was Bugatti crossing the bridge to Rome with all his executioner kit.
One of the methods of execution was a mallet blow to the skull – the “hermeneutic of rupture”, you might say.
This looks rather like a red biretta with black trimmings. A perfect birthday present!
*grins*
Honestly, if we want that vintage of speed and splash, how about a Mooney Bravo? It’s probably not too different in price, flies faster, offers a better view of the overall area (from 3,500 ft AGL or higher), and may offer a somewhat larger luggage compartment.
Speed, cool looks, AND utility. Tough to beat.
..Well, that might be my aviation fantasy anyway!
