“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

Johnny Mercer wrote a song during the turbulent year of 1944, here it’s sung by the incomparable Ella Fitzgerald:

Gather ’round me, everybody
Gather ’round me while I preach some
Feel a sermon comin’ on me
The topic will be sin
And that’s what I’m agin
If you want to hear my story
Then settle back and just sit tight
While I start reviewing
The attitude of doing right
You got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
E-lim-i-nate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
Don’t mess with mister inbetween
Deo Gratias for Big Band. One more, a Glenn Miller classic:

“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the Earth; break forth into joyous song and sing praises!
“Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre, with trumpets and the sound of the horn and the saxophone…”
(Ok, that last one Tracer Bullet insisted. He’s getting a little “ranch happy” and is thinking of swapping his trenchcoat for a Duster.)
