Not Hail Mary, but "born of the Virgin Mary"

And one difference between Catholic and Protestant Apostle's Creed is the capitalization of Catholic

In Catholic creed:

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Holy Catholic Church,
the communion of Saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.

In Church of England:

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.
 
The first time I heard of Hail Mary as last resort was in an American football video game and have heard it in other contexts since, but mostly US contexts. I could recite the prayer in my head just now, which kinda surprised me.

Moving on, my wife returns tomorrow after a week in Florida and a week in London. My devolution will pause momentarily until she goes away again in a couple of weeks.
 
Spent some time today with my five-year-old grand-nephew and seven-year-old grand-niece. Love those kids
 
Haven't been popping in a ton this week, but just wanted to shout somewhere into the void about the Jays finally getting their bats back. 5 home runs tonight, 13 runs, currently in the 9th inning. Let's go! 🇨🇦
 
My sister-in-law brought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers on the weekend and I have them in a vase here in the office and they sure brighten the room. The sunflowers are stunning.
 
Hello from North Little Rock. Google directions to the library were incredibly complex, so I allowed myself an hour to get lost. Arrived to find locating the place was a piece of cake. Figures. This is the last presentation of the trip. The coordinator for Arkansas Center for the Book came to the program yesterday in Hot Springs. Very nice lady who brought kind words and copies of the posters that are being sent to all the libraries in Arkansas.
 
Magic the gathering... well seeing as I clicked (tapped), I suppose I can tell a story.

In highschool I joined a group online
With whom I play DND all the time

Each night of wednesday, work or free
A time I required to belong to me.

First quuest of ours we did not finish
Yet still our group did not diminish.

'Cause entrapped fangs were not our style
We tried the carnival a while

Second quest was far less scary
For things were quite differently harry.

For many years we had our fun
So next we tried a dinosaur one!

The map was large and designed to delay
Yet somehow we quickly found our way

The final dungeon, death curse gone
We decided to try a different dawn

So much experience had yet now with none
We now take magic one-oh-one.
 
I am staunchly pro-cheese, minus the kinds that have mold on them. Once I accidentally ordered some fancy pizzas that included Gorgonzola. It was delicious, but I could only eat it in the dark (with the TV on) and without looking at it 😅

We are fully into fall now, and I love it. Frost warnings, and my building has activated the boiler.

Our Jays have once again found them bats. ACLS is now tied 2-2 with one more game in Seattle, and two in Trannah. Things are looking up here in sicko baseball land. Let's go !
