Coucoumellisms

So apparently, (don't ask me for references, this was a comment made to me by someone), the pope has banned vuvuzelas. Huh? Yeah, all the journalists were saying, at least he's letting us keep our chairs.  (This said in a smug tone, with a smirk) So I am supposed to be ashamed to be Catholic now, because the pope has banned vuvuzelas? 1.  I doubt the pope banned them himself, I suspect that the people who work with him to organize public audiences probably banned them. 2.  Technically, I'm sure vuvuzelas haven't been banned per se, not in general as the first comment seemed to suggest.  Catholics may still blow vuvuzelas at soccer games without having to visit a confessional afterwards.  They've probably just been disallowed from public audiences with the pope, because... 3.  ... as hard as this may be for some people out there to understand, some of the catholics (I'd even hazard a guess that most of the catholics) going to see the pope in a publ

Ou l’Expérience de Juana la Cubana (1) Écrit: le13 novembre 1993 (C'est un travail qui devait être fait dans le style d'un récit biblique et remis à l'accompagnateur/prêtre du groupe qui avait été au Paraguay.  Cela faisait parti de notre intégration au retour du Paraguay.) Édité: le 24 août 2010 La suite de l’Évangile… Jésus guérit une mère célibataire. La parole de Dieu fut adressée à Jeanne, fille de Jean-Nil, dans sa vingtième année sous la forme d’une parabole. C’était dans la neuvième année du règne de Brian Mulroney et elle se trouvait dans le ville de Québec, étudiant la théologie. L’Esprit lui dit : Voilà qu’un malheureux bédouin qui se plaignait de sa misère exceptionnelle, s’est mis en route à travers le monde pour voir, ce qui lui paraissait impossible, s’il existait au monde un plus pauvre que lui. Finalement en plein désert, il rencontre un vieillard tellement abandonné qu’il est ému de pitié devant ce dénuement incomparable. Il lui dit : « Tu es

However, we got money for Christmas, and my husband was thinking about a Wii.  I didn't want a Wii either, not even for the sports stuff, because what is the point of playing sports on a Wii when you can just go out and play real sports?  But the kids all wanted a PS3 instead.  And since a PS3 is also a blu-ray dvd player, I eventually gave in, thinking we could just control how often they used the games. I used to let them take turns with the controls then hide the controls, but that wasn't a good idea, because with no controls, you can't watch movies either.  So I got smart recently, and took away the games instead. We had two controls so they could play either with or against each other, but still, the problem is you limit them on how much time they spend playing, but they all have to take turns, so they still end up sitting in front of the thing for 6 - 8 hours, watching the others' turns.  We have recently solved that problem.  The boys wanted to buy two more
