“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

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.

PLEASE subscribe via PayPal if it is useful.
That way I have steady income I can plan on, and you wind up regularly on my list of benefactors for whom I pray and for whom I periodically 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?

Nobody ran out to help him? Those birds are vicious and aggressive. I’d like to let one loose in their cafeteria and see if they still find it funny.
[Pope Francis might call you a “sour puss”.]
LOL–turkey brought to you courtesy of FedEx?
It would appear the turkey was in a fowl mood.
Not a sour puss, Father. Just someone who has to share a campus with these infernal creatures. The Nazgul flew on the backs of wild turkeys, didn’t they? [I think it was they flew with Wild Turkey. Wasn’t that it?]
I have the same sentiments towards UPS. When I lived on the top floor of an apartment building with no elevator, the UPS would never actually bring me my packages. He’d just leave the delivery notice on the inside of the apartment on my mailbox.
I still have not received my Christmas pressie via UPS….’nuff said. Maybe it will come tomorrow on my birthday. I love that turkey.
But, who’s the turkey here?
I’ve had similar experiences with Canada geese on the running path in this same town.
A couple years back I visited Drottningholm Palace, one of the royal palaces in Sweden.
I was chased by a very aggressive mute swan. It took a few people to shoo the bird away.
Swans, geese, turkeys, etc. are powerful birds. I’ve seen them chasing dogs, cats AND people.
