I love it when there's a hilarious post in Eccles. Here's Louise describing the music at Christmas Mass:
quote: lo, verily, the organist had smitten the keyboard like unto Samson getting all Bronze Age on somebody's ass.
-------------------- Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world’s grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.

On the 'Ungorgivable (sic) sin' thread in Heaven a little while back:
' Not so very long ago, gully prepared to deliver a major seminar before the great and the good, SWMBO had to go commando. Threw away all her gallen-apart knickers with not a thought og buying replacements. Mr Eggiciency had the wash on; when cries were heard "Guck! I haven't got any knickers!" '
Unfortunately I don't remember who said it, and it won't let me search for it, so.........yet again, I say: any claimers? Someone must be proud of that one!

...except Vettriano's works aren't cloying gobs of sentiment. I like JV's work because it contains a bit of mystery and helps me build stories around the figures in the paintings (something I value as a writer), whereas Kincade's works present me with nothing more than a cute image.
Of course, both of these men can laugh at their critics all the way to the bank.

I've already just confessed that Callan is one of my favourite quotable shipmates, and here he is on form again. From the NOS thread in Purgatory:
quote: but we can all see that giving someone in their twenties pastoral care of a congregation of six hundred young people after one year at theological college with no adequate support or oversight is going to end badly whether he is Hannibal Lecter or St. John of the Cross.

Yoiks! I am humbled Mme Lapin avec une hache.
In years to come, those researching my biography will find this permanent record of my erudition.
"Oh, look," will say Researcher the First, "He contributed a passage to an internet-based theological forum!"
"Really?" will come the response. "What is the underlying theme of his thesis?"
"Umm... it's all about knobbing skinny girls."
