Sabato.

 The sun is out.


Well, in reality, the sun has been out since God said, "Let there be light."
This is the same god who said, "Hey, we won't have any problems with our clergy in the church."
Though, Robert wrote a post on this and he seems to think it's just a bit of a glitch.
Maybe we just need another flood.
Where's Noah?

I haven't done any practice yet today, but I have taken care of a few jobs - I'm working on the music for a Scottish gig that I should never have accepted and I painted the bit on Shelley's car where she got hit by a supermarket trolley - the damage doer buggered off. Bastard!

Okay, I'd better get some violin practice done.
Let's see if we can get fifty comments on this post.
Ciao tutti.

Well, it was a short post but one really deserving of a comment. I enjoyed it.

James McCarthy

Anonimo ha detto...

Yes, I'm with James on this one.

Simon Plerty

Anonimo ha detto...

That guy Robert should join up with us Presbyterians. We have a great church. It's very clean too.

John O'Brady

Anonimo ha detto...

I heard somewhere that he's the guy who cleans our church! Is that true?

Vincent Prode

Anonimo ha detto...

I go to that church too. I think it is just a rumour.

John Toiletseat

Anonimo ha detto...

Hey man, that's an unusual surname.

Vincent Prode

Anonimo ha detto...

I know. I get told that all the time. I have a friend named James Shitface. I guess it could be worse.

John Toiletseat.

Anonimo ha detto...

I always get suspicious when I see strange surnames on a blog (in the comments section).
Hey, Robert, I'm a Catholic too. The press is making too much of these abuse allegations.

Benedict Brothers

Anonimo ha detto...

Flush off shithead! I can't help my surname.

John Toiletseat

Anonimo ha detto...

Sorry. I didn't mean to offend. Anyway, it's a fitting name for a Presbyterian.

Benedict Brothers

Anonimo ha detto...

That just shows how fucked up you Catholics are!

John Toiletseat

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

"I know. I get told that all the time. I have a friend named James Shitface. I guess it could be worse.

John Toiletseat."

Let's hope that Shitface doesn't meet up with Toiletseat. Then they'd really need a cleaner.

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

You thinking about calling Robert?

Anonimo ha detto...

Hey guys, can you leave me out of all this silly shit?

James Shitface

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

"Wipe your nose sonny boy" was always a good retort that Tony used.
It never got him into trouble. It was just his friends that got beaten up because of it.

Anonimo ha detto...

You and me?

Richard (of RBB)

Anonimo ha detto...

They used to tell me to wipe my dirty face.

James Shitface

Anonimo ha detto...

- on our way to 50 -

!!!!!

Anonimo ha detto...

It's a long walk though.

Anonimo ha detto...

Comment, comment, comment, comment, comment...

Anonimo ha detto...

Okay, you probably get the idea.

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

"You and me?"

Yes, in or near Wilton I think but he also did it to me at St Pat's in the 4th form.

Well done on the comments by the way. How do you do it?

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

25, well, unfortunately 26 now but 50 has to be a bit of a stretch doesn't it?
Maybe Robert will help. He's got plenty of imaginary friends.
He could start with those bi-locationists for a start, and then there are the flaggelists. The Maryans are worth a comment or two and those nutty kids who hear voices are worth a go. I'd be calling up the talking donkey and the burning bush for a comment or two as well. Those crazy old ladies who 'witness' tears from statues of Jesus, Mary and Joseph should be worth mining. Fathers Orange, Purple, Awaythebetter and Inbecauseilike it should contribute as well.
Looks like you're on a roll.

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

Thanks.

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

We're getting there!

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

Slowly.

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

"Softly, softly catchy monkey." as my dad used to say.

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

He said that a lot.

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

Multiple times.

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

Catchee.

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

Oh what the hell - here are a few more ....1

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

Robert's pals are a bit slow coming forward. Maybe they don't exist after all.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

God said he wouldn't do the flood thing again, so Noah can concentrate on the beatific vision and relax.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

I prefer the chaff and wheat parable.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

The goats and the wheat one is good too.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

Then there is the rich man looking up from hell asking Lazarus to warn his brothers. That speaks to me.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

I suppose I should tell you today's gospel, it being Sunday and all that.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

It starts with Jesus talking to Nicodemus.
He says the son of man must be lifted up...an allusion to the cross.
By this the world will be saved.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

'Whoever believes in him will not be condemned,
but whoever does not believe has already been condemned'.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

You talked about the sun...
'..the light came into the world, but people preferred darkness to light, because their works were evil'.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

'Whoever lives the truth comes to the light, so that his works may be clearly seen as done by God'.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

So let's move to the light. God is an ocean of compassion.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

47. I want to reach 50.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

Imagine the smile on Richard's face.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

50. Have a blessed day... see you at 9am Mass.

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

I'm standing outside the church and 9am mass is well underway.

Where are you?

Anonimo ha detto...

Came home again.

Richard (of RBB)

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

It’s all go in Martianland that’s for sure.

Robert Sees Things in Sky ha detto...

Standing room only today. I sat down the back on the floor. I had to be close to the sacristy.

Anonimo ha detto...

I sat down in my livingroom.

R (of RBB)

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

"I sat down in my livingroom."

As I said earlier - "It’s all go in Martianland that’s for sure".

Anonimo ha detto...

Yeah,

Anonimo ha detto...

that's certainly

Anonimo ha detto...

for sure.

Anonimo ha detto...

Richard (of RBB)

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

I know what you're doing.

Anonimo ha detto...

What?

Anonimo ha detto...

Please tell.

Anonimo ha detto...

Reminds me of William Tell.

Anonimo ha detto...

He was a bit like Robin Hood.

Anonimo ha detto...

He was a bit like Robin Hood.

Anonimo ha detto...

Ah, Friar Tuck!

Anonimo ha detto...

You wouldn't want to mispronounce that!

Anonimo ha detto...

It is important to have the 'F' first.

Anonimo ha detto...

And not the 'T'.

Anonimo ha detto...

Peter is 71.

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

Senility is sad really and to witness decline is a shame.
Still, if it keeps the old guy happy it’s OK.

Work this morning,

Anonimo ha detto...

Tsk tsk.
I see that we are still clinging to the old obsessions.

Nope.
Silly old cunt.

Anonimo ha detto...

Nope, I'll walk this alone.

Anonimo ha detto...

Hey, Robert might help.

Anonimo ha detto...

Just four comments to go.

Anonimo ha detto...

Everest of blogging!

Anonimo ha detto...

Can... do this...

Anonimo ha detto...

I can.

Done! 😉 😀

I hope that you clean up after you.
