"I gots the giggles!"

Chris: "I'm a host!"

Conrad: "With the way you've been drinking tonight, you're more like a chalice."

Number one on the NC charts

"There was a man named Augie,
Who came to the Bottom that was Foggy,
He came to change my life,
But could he change my life?
He had a friend with big arms,
Who tried to woo Alecia with his charms,
And one day in the Spring,
He earned his nickname, Don King."

Refrain: "Oh Augie, wont you change my life, oh Augie come and make me your wife, oh Augie yes I know that it is true, oh Augie, I love you!."

Changes

Okay so something that one would only do with a Newman Center blog, I'm going to change the color based on the liturgical season... the title and border is purple right now, it will go to red at the Triduum and then white (normal since i cant do white really, ooh maybe gold) for Easter, then green for ordinary time... Let me know if you think its worth the effort... Its not going to be too over the top, subtlety is a virtue in my opinion...

A guilty pleasure?

Online, but worthy nevertheless of posting...

Ryan: "I've been cheating, I've started listening to the Exultet... mea culpa"

New Idea for a TV Show?
