Just a quick note to mention that the Texas 11 entry written on July 30 about the Democrat’s exodus to New Mexico was published as a letter to the editor in the Wichita Falls Times Record News this morning.

e-mail list

I hope everyone is having a good Monday. This is my last week of classes and so I’m keeping things light while I’ll prepare a couple of reports and get ready for finals. I wanted to let you know about a little notification list I have ready. On the right side of the page, there is a place for your e-mail address. Feel free to add yourself and I’ll send you an e-mail about once a week letting you know what’s new. Well, that’s all I have for the moment, I’m off to read Machiavelli’s The Prince but enjoy a little Homestar…
Mr. Shmallow makes good! (two weeks without a SB e-mail = not a happy Brandon)

new archbishop of boston

Archbishop Sean Patrick O’Malley, OFM Cap. was installed as the sixth Archbishop of Boston on July 30 marking the start of a new era in the torn archdiocese.

I think it’s fitting that a Franciscan brother now sits on the cathedra in the Cathedral- if we recall, St. Francis started the Franciscan movement after hearing the call “Francis, rebuild my Church” from the Lord. At the time, Francis took that to mean the physical church but he later realized it was meant for the Church as a whole. The Church of Boston is in great need of being rebuilt and it is quite poetic that a successor to the call of St. Francis has been appointed for the task.

In his homily, the new Archbishop sounded ready and excited to begin this process in the area. With his record of accomplishment in the dioceses of Palm Beach and Fall River, I really believe he is going to do the best job possible for everyone- priests, victims, everyone.
