On the other hand, the Catholic Church also has the Nuns on the Bus. On the other other hand, the leadership was looking to "reform" the US nuns. And on the other other other hand, New Pope put a stop to that.

So I guess yeah, they're kinda nuts. :-S

(Not a Catholic, but my sis-in-law, her family, and my best friend all are.)

Can we really condemn Bill O’Reilly for allegedly dragging his wife, by the neck, down a flight of stairs, in front of his teenaged daughter?

The girl's a teen now, but this alleged incident allegedly occurred 5 or 6 alleged years ago, when she would've allegedly been 10 or 11. Which is an entirely different kettle of pus.

And you call yourselves journamalists.

so, would you like a drink before or after the war? I mean dinner

I forgot which one of you wonketteers said in the non comment section that as an Irish American, this talk about drunken stereotypes was marginalizing and disenfranchising and made you mad--especially when drinking...(I love you guys...I think that is why despite being brown, I always seem to end up with white Irish Catholics--that and the unabashed libido, at least when the plumbing works...)

Is that the one about if you're hung like a horse, you don't need a Mercedes?The "my dog has no nose How does he smell? Awful !"joke doesn't translate well in those languages with reflexive verbs (the title of the story on which the opera, Rigoletto is based "Le roi s'amuse" always makes me laugh because in my 'Merkin brain/language center, I translate it as "the King amuses himself" rather than "the King is amused." But I digress....
