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.
This blog has to earn its keep!
PLEASE subscribe via PayPal if it is useful. Zelle and Wise are better, but PayPal is convenient.
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?
For a one time donation...
To donate monthly I prefer Zelle because it doesn't extract fees. Use

Loading ...This is really useful when travelling… and also when you aren’t and you need backup internet NOW! I use this for my DMR “Zednet” hotspot when I’m mobile. It’s a ham radio thing.
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.

This is the funniest Pope Francis cartoon I’ve seen yet!
This is idealized Rome: no other cars on top, underneath, coming in /from every direction, no coaches/intercity buses of pilgrims cum tourists tring to park in a fiat 500 space- guardian angels working overtime unrecognized and unsung.
I must now clean my screen of Mystic Monk coffee. Thanks for the snort!
Very funny bumper stickers. I see future Z-Swag here.
LOL at the stick figures on the window!
How’s my driving?
Rather sloppy.
The coexist sticker makes my skin crawl.
Too perfect! Thank you for the much needed laugh!
They left out the rosary that should be hanging from the rear view mirror!
I actually like the window decal of a bishop leading his flock. The others, not so much.
