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

Democrat Convention Schedule. No… wait… could this be a joke?
I offer the following not because I would rather see the corpse of Millard Fillmore defeat Pres. Obama in the 2012 election, but because it is pretty funny. It could just be a gag, however. It doesn’t schedule praise for … Read More
Ex cathedra… ad cathedram
A little fun with Latin. A reader sent this:
Pres. Obama doesn’t exactly “punch above his weight” with our “strongest allies”
