Color and cold.

15-Oct-09http://gowstakeout.com/2011/05/07/hukilau/imag4538/ This was too good not to comment on: French Priest Traveling In U.S.A. With Relics of St. Mary Magdalene. Apparently a priest is going on tour with some bits of bone, purported to be those of Mary Magdalene. And she’ll be making an appearance in New York City, at St. Vincent Ferrer, on Monday. I […]
Helen Luke and Dante.
15-Oct-09Time spent among people reveals just how difficult it is, even for the most worthy and competent, to be capable of real love and relationship. Developing this capacity is in truth the sole bifocal commandment of the Christian religion, all others being mere ancillae; and it is also the goal of Jung’s school of psychoanalysis, […]
Vergilmas.

The Mice Move In.
07-Oct-09It’s the season when mice decide their old homes are not quite as warm as they thought they would be, and look for new ones. After driving down to the store and back, I was dismayed to discern a strong burning smell coming from my truck’s engine; so I popped the hood. I found a […]
As you grow older you learn that a key dimension of all religious narrative is that these are stories which you will, by virtue of being human, almost certainly reenact in your own life. Andrew Sullivan, who has been leading one of the most impressively public Christian lives, describes in few and eloquent words his […]
Viral Fish.
06-Oct-09I heard from a friend that the story I penned for Gothamist about the Great Fish of Richmond Hill still had some legs and was getting traffic, and since I doubted this traffic was coming solely from Gothamist, I decided to fish around the internet and see where the story had gone. Sure enough, if […]
