A little Christmas and COVID Humour

 A letter that appeared on our fridge on or about Dec 25, 2020.


P^3

 

 Dear Mr. Stalker Santa,

I have been good:

  1. All year,
  2. These last few days,
  3. Ha!

Circle one of the above. Choose wisely as I wish to add your answer to my school paper on important people: Santa. But, enough about that.

How have you been?  How has your diet been going? I hear that the "cookies & cream" diet is a popular one. 

This year, I wish to ask you multiple things:

First, is "Santa"  just your superhero identity? If so, what is your actual identity, and what made you call yourself "Santa"?? Are you Donald Trump? If this question bothers you, I promise I will keep it a secret. No one will know, except you, me, my 9+ siblings, their friends and whoever reads the school reports at school (Tradicat: plus readers of this blog 😀) ... but other than that select group, secret safe!

Question #2 (or 5 or 6 ...): Will you be coming this Christmas, even with the whole Covid thingy?  You'll probably not go to the mall, but this is why I'm writing this letter!

Now for the things I want:

  1. I am once again asking for a network of tunnels underneath Canada.  I didn't get it last year, sooooooo...
  2. I wish to have a cheetah cub, so that I can raise it in domestic settings.
  3. An amusement park for me and my family.
  4. Solar panels!
  5. An aeroplane, along with a users manual.
  6. A huuuuge zipline!!!!
  7. A life long warranty on a pair of flying wings.
  8. A genie.
  9. A motorcycle.
  10. A yacht.
  11. A get-away-cabin in the Rocky Mountains.
  12. A library with three levels, and slides in between each floor.
  13. Bilinguality (or trilinguality) ... whatever you have in stock.
  14. Invisibility.
  15. The ability to walk on vertical surfaces.
  16. The capability to knowing what is deadly.
  17. A better Prime Minister for Canada.
  18. I don't know get creative 😉.

For all of the above, I expect the real thing. 

Oh, another thing I wish to ask:

How old do you look? (NB: This was written backwards in the original)

Consider the answer to the first one carefully, and answer the second one truthfully!

Another question: Are Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, and Rudolf really your reindeer?  If so, how did that happen?! Also, are they mutated to make them fly?  Don't say they're magic, because I don't consider that an appropriate answer. Everything nowadays are based on science!!!

Puzzled Greatly
and Expectantly waiting

The Curious Case of Steve Skojec and the Dangers of Deep Diving into the Crisis Sub-Titled: The Failings of Others

 + JMJ It's been a while now since Steve Skojec sold 1P5 and abandoned the Catholic Faith. I've been a 'Trad' since 1982 and in those 40+ years I seen this death-spiral before with a similar end point. It seems that anyone who jumps into the fray unprepared for the enormous task of righting wrongs will, eventually, become discouraged by not the task but the people who surround them.   I remember when Skojec complained of the treatment his family received from a traditional priest.  This seems to have been the start of the end for him. So what can we learn from the likes of Steve Skojec, Michael Voris (maybe?), Louie Verrecchio, Gerry Matatix and other celebrity Catholics? Probably quite a lot about what not to do. First, don't burn out on the crisis?  When you burn out, on work or anything else, little things assume a more greater importance than they are due.   This is one of my 'canary in the coal mine' signals that I've been stretching myself too th...

Communique about Avrille Dominicans - SSPX.org

+ JMJ Having completed the review of the 'Avrille' perspective, this communique from the French District Superior is perfectly timed. I believe that the 'resistance' has lost rationality and further argumentation simply results in their holding on to their false ideal all the more firmly. Pray much ... First, for them to acquiesce to the grace of humility in order to obtain a clear perspective on the principles involved. Second, that we may remain faithful to the Church, and Her Dogmas, Doctrines and Principles. Lest we become that which against we strove ... P^3 Courtesy of SSPX.org

Morning and Evening and other sundry Prayers

+ JMJ Along the theme of P^3 (Prayer, Penance, Patience), and for my own reference ... here is a collection of Morning and Evening prayers from the Ideal Daily Missal along with some additional prayers. In this crisis of the Church, I do not think it is possible to do too much prayer, penance and have patience. P^3

Tradical Commentary on: Restore DC Catholicism: SSPX And Austrilian Bishops - Two Different Errors

+ JMJ An interesting thing has happened on the discussion that prompted my article on whether it is sinful to attend the Novus Ordo Missae .  The blog owner of RDCC has shut down discussion by locking the article. That is their prerogative, but I am puzzled as to why? Perhaps it has something to do with some of the latter comments. They didn't believe the teaching on intention with regards to confecting the Sacraments.  This is not the first time I've experienced incredulity on this topic ( reference articles ). Really this isn't about what they believe but the truth. They seem to believe that the objections to the Novus Ordo Missae are simply about "overly delicate sensibilities".  In response to this I am reblogging a number of articles by the SSPX. Perhaps it was the comment made by Bishop Schneider, a currently well revered hero (who deserved the accolades) but apparently has said something similar to the SSPX.   I suspect that it is more...
