We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.

The elevation of Pope Leo XIV is a profound and historic occasion. Like so many around the world, I am praying for him and wishing him and the Church well as his papacy begins.

So let me get this straight, we finally get an American pope, and some of the America first crowd is mad because he cares about the poor and immigrants. Am i missing something here?

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

A PERSONAL FAVOR
A number of years ago I discovered that my wife has a memory like an audio visual recording Rolodex. She remembers conversations we had the first week we met. My memory is not nearly that good. In fact relative to my wife’s my memory is horrible.
Here in this community, it is challenging remembering who said what, especially without a feature that allows us to search by name for peoples past comments.
My memory works by geography. That’s my filing system.
If you would be willing,…
This from the man who lives "somewhere on the road!" Yes, I am in the Boston area. I remember several other LFAA locations, but permission isn't granted to share them. PS, here's a song for Roland (not THE Song of Roland) on his travels. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ov4epAJRPMw
Well, I’ve been to all the places west of Texas that Johnny Cash is talking about except Catalina. Thanks TPJ that was sweet of you 🙏
Reading all your replies, Roland, sparked a memory. My cousin, Joey, was a truck driver, retired in the early 2000's. He knew every nook and cranny of every town you could name. I don't think there's a cartographer who could hold a candle to the likes of him or you when it comes to U.S. geography!
Like I said, I’m a geography nut. And when we’re talking about the US were talking about my home. I’m a complete bimbo when it comes to Canada, or even Mexico which is closer to me than Canada.
We wince in Canada. I’m positive “complete bimbo” is grossly exaggerated, but it would not be enough for some Americans. Admittedly from several decades ago but... A colleague of mine came from a family in Niagara Falls who owned a motel. They regularly fielded inquiries such as, “Can you walk to Toronto from here?” “How far from here until there’s skiing”? (in July). My wife and I were once doing a baseball trip down the east side of your country. We were golfing one day in Brookline MA (gor…
So, Eric, how was the rest of your trip? Asking for a friend...
Can't really remember sadly. I've had so many trips to the United States for holidays. Generally speaking, I loved them all. Naturally, once in a while "stuff happens" that puts a damper on a holiday. I have a fount full of stories. I've travelled way more in America than in Canada. We took our kids to Myrtle Beach virtually every spring (80s and 90s). Loved it. Was stunned by the social inequality, but not really of an age to appreciate how momentous it was. Drove all the time - loved the Appalachian geography. My other trips were, as mentioned, baseball related. Baseball is a passion for me. Those were amazing and produced their own stories. In those days we Canadians held America in awe. We, as a country, felt like the red-headed stepchild. Small. Insufficient. Boring. Post 9/11, I think we took careful stock and our general impression was that we felt sorry that the America that was was disappearing. It seemed odd how quickly Americans became fearful. The grating "U.S.A. U.S.A. U.S.A." chant disappeared by and large, a happening we didn't regret. The last four years we have felt appalled, terrified, and amazed that America could have taken such a reckless right turn behind a man most of us regarded as the male equivalent of a bimbo. And we breathed a HUGE sigh of relief when Biden won.
