Summer Challenge

|
Home for two days before the 2nd great road trip of summer. Is that enough time to consume the 25 tomatoes I picked last night before even entering the house?

Other random items:
  • There's a faint but noticeable bent of hippie in our parish congregation, expressed mostly in style of dress and crunchy bumper-stickers: such as the command we practice "random acts of kindness." So I did a double-take this morning when what looked like the same old message in fact read
    practice ruthless logic and acts of enlightened self-interest.
    Must not be from around these parts.
  • A wonderful interview with Fr. Fessio can be found here. Personal reminiscences of von Balthazar, de Lubac, Benedict XVI --and beer pointers.
