    Searching for Decency in US Politics

    The two parties have become both sides of the same worthless wooden nickel. When you elect clowns you should not complain when you get a circus. Vote them all out, DEM, GOP and INDY. We need to start over from scratch and demand strict term limits

    Back, with some sad news

    She has left all forms of social media. She has a stalker that seems to be able to find her wherever she goes. I get email from her a couple of times a month. She does not get back to the US very often. I still play poker with her Uncle Paolo.

    Good morning OBOB. I haven't signed in to CF in quite some time, but I am here with sad news. Many of you will remember my friend Sylverpiano. I had an email from her this morning. Her father and his wife have been killed in the Hamas rocket attacks in Israel. Rabbi Abe was a great man and...

    A different kind of Catholic -- sort of where I'm at now.

    I remember very well the threat of eternal damnation for eating meat on Fridays. We would sometimes have salmon patties but mostly it was mac and cheese or grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup. My Mom made a dish with cubed potatoes, pearl onions and fresh peas in a cream sauce that I...

    A different kind of Catholic -- sort of where I'm at now.

    My trigger has already been pulled. It is a long and difficult road back. I have found my way a few times but this time I may not

    So, what are you cooking for dinner? It smells delicious!

    I love chili and will make it when it is a hundred degrees outside. I make enough to freeze a few quarts for later.

    Attending Ex-Catholics’ “Weddings”

    I think Father Nix is just expressing his opinion. I have attended a lot of wedding and funerals at other churches and synagogues over the years. I have even been to one at a Hindu Temple, as well as non religious ceremonies. As far as Father Nix is concerned each and every one of these...

    Attending Ex-Catholics’ “Weddings”

    I read the article and went to the website to get more information about his priest. Reading through a few of his life updates leads me to believe that he is definitely a conspiracy theorist: His opinion in the article posted here sounds like the opinions "Doctor" Laura used to put out on...

    A different kind of Catholic -- sort of where I'm at now.

    At my former Episcopal Parish Father Grant loved babies. Once there was a fussy baby in the first couple of rows. He went and took the child and comforted it, then preached his entire homily while holding the baby. He had a very soft and calming voice and soon she fell asleep and he returned...

    So, what are you cooking for dinner? It smells delicious!

    We had fast food (Taco John's) tacos for lunch. This is where we had our first date a little more than fifty years ago. I remember that day very well. For dinner tonight I have two ground chicken patties. Hers is cheddar cheese and bacon, mine is jalepeño, bacon and pepper jack cheese. They...
