Brain Dump, Wednesday, 2:45 PM

Here's four six bullet points, comin' at'cha.

• Madame, please endeavor to wear a dress that covers your entire butt when coming into the cathedral. The fact that your coat contends with your dress for length is extremely distracting.
• I think I got an entire palm tree smeared on my head. But that's okay.
• A thing I noticed that I started doing, and now it makes me giggle: I've started blowing by panhandlers and survey-takers by saying "I'm sorry," and doing this hand wave thing. It's sort of morphed into this Obi-Wan, "These aren't the droids you're looking for," kind of thing. I think I want to focus on that, really workshop it.
• Joe (in regard your comment on the previous post): I haven't talked ad nauseum about the College of Cardinals? Dude, Benedict XVI is the coach, clearly. I have a roster on Excel that tells me where everybody is, because of course I import them into Madden and want to keep track of them. Notables: Paul Joseph Cardinal Pham Dinh Tung is a safety for the Ravens, Miloslav Cardinal Vlk won the Groza award and plays for the Bears, and Julius Cardinal Darmaatmadja is a WR/KR who is battling for the Heisman with Tyrell Sutton.
• Oh, also, I'm basically live-blogging my blog, as I'm not putting together any sort of coherent thought process today. (Re: Joe's comment a couple posts ago, which I'm pretty sure was just making fun of me.)
• You can't use punctuation in post labels.

That's all for now.

To Dust You Will Return

By the way, Happy Ash Wednesday, everybody.

I'm a little peeved because I wanted to go to Holy Name for the 12:10 Mass with Cardinal George, but my detective work took too long, now it's 12:03, and I have to wait for Schmuckley from Ice Mountain to come back. I would've tried to find time to tell Cardinal George that, according to NCAA Football 2007, he's a monster at middle linebacker, but I'm vaguely afraid that it would've earned me a smiting. I don't know if the actual College of Cardinals would find that amusing or not - I really doubt it, because there's what, 15 American Cardinals who would be likely to get the joke, and I would imagine that most of them take themselves extremely seriously. But I'd like to think that privately, they'd get a little bit of a snicker out of it.
