Nothing interesting to report on the job front, which is why there have been no posts in the last six months; but now there remains less to worry, thus posting begins anew.
Just to let people know July 21, 2009
….since I moved to Virginia, some of things I have done for the first time are go within a traditional confessional for the sacrament of Repentence, attended a Tridentine mass, and gone up in a small airplane with friends.
I return for longer June 30, 2009
Not too long after that post in September I mov’d to Virginia. I became a schoolteacher, living as roommate to new friend and an old friend. I made a new facebook account so this website fell by the wayside. I revive it again hoping to put out some additional commentery concerning the world. (As though my readers need more from opinions.) Perhaps this space is just organizing my thoughts…oh well, so much to type!
A little house-cleaning August 22, 2008
All right, now that I have talked about my parish and Christianity the time has come to move. Over the next few days then I will post several pieces about Scouting. That subject has less open discussion on it than Catholicity but I may type more concerning cafeteria-Catholicks. I know that I owe me loyal readers more posts on grammar that I promised months ago; plus pieces on Classical music, alternative names for this site, and getting on to Yeats. All coming I promise. For today, here be some of my personally-written Latin phrases to test out, translate, and discuss. Why? because everything sounds better coming in Latin!
- Ubi nil ibi est, deus ibi est.
- Nos in mundo vivimus facimus.
- Ego in umbras non-credo; sed alias agnosco crescent.
[I proceed to disrupt this series for clearing up an idiom] August 20, 2008
When I refer to someone as a “cafeteria Catholick,” I do not mean “someone who picks and chooses aspects of Catholicity” to believe. (For that I prefer “salad-bar Catholick” to label.) Rather I mean “cafeteria Catholick” as someone who goes into the dining hall to talk and discuss Catholicism aplenty but then does nothing for the Catholick Church outside such an establishment. All chat and none of action; but then not a true hypocrite since they may believe some articles of faith. Now back to what I was leading up towards on this website.
So people ask me, what I do? January 12, 2008
Currently, first I start applications to post-graduate school and then, pray that I get multiple acceptances. What I do during the rest of my spare time is try to con someone with an elaborate scheme, persuade from a well-formed position to let me please do my MAT at Hobart and William Smith.
are still to come January 8, 2008
I have made some updates and start to actually begin some commentaries and compositions.
