The Lenten Update

The Lenten Update
Not mine, but so good that I have to share it, not only in my blog, but on Sunday Snippets.

Lent Update

If I'm going to be honest in this blog, (and what's the sense of blogging otherwise?) then I have to admit that I haven't been doing too well when it comes to praying the Stations of the Cross.
Not too late to pick up the slack there!

Whenever I hear "(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty" by KC and the Sunshine Band, I get a picture in my mind of
a baby discovering that a booty makes a lousy rattle!

When I read The Story Of A Soul for the first time, back in the 70s, I remember thinking, "If I were a Catholic, I'd want her to be my Patron Saint."
Well, now I am, and she is!

Once again, a post from one of my old blogs!

The original, Italian version of "Volare" {proper title "Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu"} recorded by Domenico Modugno, was one of my favorite songs when I was around five. I used to sing "Dipinto di Blu" as "The pink and the blue." That's what they call a mondegreen!
