A little Christmas and COVID Humour

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

 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

News Roundup: July 11, 2025

 + JMJ This has been an interesting month for news ... First we had the leaking of the 2021 report on what I would call the "Survey of Tradition".  Not surprisingly, the report was generally positive and Pope Francis ... for whatever reason ... still proceeded with Traditionis Custodes.  Andrea Grillo is not pleased with this turn of affairs. I suspect that the 'leaking' of the report is a symptom of a course correction.  Time will tell as this pontificate unfolds.  I am still curious to hear if the SSPX Superiour General will be invited to Rome this summer while the Pope reclaims the Castel Gandolfo.   That is my critical success indicator for whether or not Catholics can really consider the pontificate of Pope Francis (RIP) are truly an aberration of the past. Then we have the firing of John-Henry Westen from Life Site News.  I have no idea what happened to cause the board coup - - - as close a the vote was - he is now out of LFN.  There is...

News Roundup: May 13, 2026

 + JMJ Introduction I have set this article to post on May 13th, the anniversary of the first of six apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary at Fatima. Fatima while a historical fact, still seems to point to the future.  Has the consecration been done according to her wishes?  Will another Pope do it again in the face of a world going mad and slipping into the same conditions that fostered two great wars? I don't know.  But I pray that the message of Fatima to repent and do penance is heard in the hearts of Catholics every where.  We carry the light to the world and need to illuminate the 'The Way'. The Catholic Church Obviously, the death of Pope Francis I and the election of Pope Leo XIV is a major development in the Catholic Church and the World. Just what the immediate outcomes of these two events will take some time.  I strongly suspect that there will be no calls of Santo Subito for Pope Francis.  If there is and if they do canonize Pope Francis ....

Rome,the SSPX and this time of Crisis - Updated

+ JMJ Obviously there's lots of events right now. First we have the April 1st - I almost thought it was April Fools - meeting between Pope Francis and Bishop Fellay.  Nothing really news worthy as this is a natural progression as Rome appears to be considering fulfilling Archbishop Lefebvre's wish to 'accept us as we are'. Second we have the April 8th publication of what will be a verbose exhortation of the Synod of the Family. I'm willing to bet that the Pope will give with one hand (unilateral regularization of SSPX) and take with the other (ambiguous document that opens the flood gates of sin further). Much to pray for.

A Look Back: A short history of the SSPX

 + JMJ  I started a timeline a while back but never finished it.  Fortunately, here's one that brings us up to 1994!!! P^3 http://archives.sspx.org/SSPX_FAQs/a_short_history_of_the_sspx-part-1.htm   A short history of the SSPX A presentation given by Fr. Ramon Angles in Kansas City, MO, on the 25th Anniversary of the founding of the SSPX and reprinted from the January 1996 issue of The Angelus . Part 1 The history of the Society of St. Pius X begins, of course, in the mind of God. But do not believe that its temporal origin is to be found solely at the time of the post-conciliar crisis. The Society of St. Pius X was made possible ...
