Yes, we always knew that playing games was a waste of time, after all, “idle hands are the devil’s workshop.” But, now we know just how much of a […]

17 September 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 3 Comments

Saturday Night Live

16 September 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto Leave a Comment

So, I watched the take-off of Gov. Sarah Palin and Sen. Hillary Clinton done by Saturday Night Live. I can see why it has become such a popular clip. The humor was almost slapstick without being rude, and the comic timing was faultless. If they can keep this up, they may very well take over […]

14 September 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment
