I Have to Sit Down
Today at the Register, come see my interview with the new president of NH Citizens for Life, Gail DeMasi. An interesting woman with an interesting attitude toward her new job! Read more

Today’s post at the Register is not one of the funny ones, I’m warning you! I’m thinking about what Planned Parenthood is really saying to girls, and what kind of help it offers. (Hint: my husband thought the picture of Kronos eating his children was too much, so I took it off.) Read more
My kids are pretty, pretty smart. But not quite as smart as I think they are. One time, for instance, we were listening to a Danny Kaye song about “they’ll never outfox the fox!” It goes on to marvel over the exploits of a dashing young scoundrel: Whenever they try to find me They find me where I am not I’m hither and yon, I’m there and gone, I’m Johnny-not-on-the spot! (He whistles as he jump to a low tree... Read more
Okay, this time I’m going to ask you guys NOT to go over and see my new post at the Register. It’s about how a Catholic should comport him or herself when arguing online. I’m kind of depending on people not knowing me too well, to make this one fly. Happy Friday! Holy crap, Lent is coming up! And my son is having an alien-themed birthday party this weekend! And the toilet is frozen again! I gotta get moving. But... Read more
Had my coffee, wondered why my post isn’t showing up at The Register, realized “post at 7 PM” is not the same as “post at 7 AM.” All fixed! Come read “New Study: The Church Is Right About Everything.” Having more coffee. Read more
The National Catholic Register (that’s the good NCR) is holding a slim lead in About.com’s Reader’s Choice Awards! Please vote for the Register — it only takes a few seconds, and you can vote once a day. Thank you! UPDATE: It has come to my attention that many faithful Catholics get the National Catholic Reporter mixed up with the National Catholic Register. For clarity’s sake: The Register’s bloggers include Mark Shea, Jimmy Aiken, Jen Fulwiler, those Archbold guys, and most... Read more
You’re feverish, miserable, throwing up, unable to get any rest. When will you be rid of it? Just when you think you’ve finally shaken it off, it comes around again for another go. Yes, folks, it’s back again to torment you some more: another election season is heaving into view. And I do mean heaving. Since voting for Obama incurs an automatic excommunication (see Mundi Worstibus, from the second council of Dipshit), and voting for Ron Paul means you’re mistaking... Read more
Oh brother, I really am working on a post – I really am. This morning I have to get my daughter to the dentist so I can show her what I mean by “the tooth is growing in on the wrong side of the spacer.” You know what that means, right? So why is the dentist’s assistant so baffled on the phone? Bah. Anyway, off we go. Here is my post today at The Register. We’ve talked about charities before... Read more
Happy Sunday! Please come and check out my post at the Register today: The Real Rapunzel. (image source) It’s terribly fashionable to be anti-princess these days — but would people feel that way if they read fairy tales in their original forms? I blather a bit about my favorite story, Rapunzel. Come take a look. I would love to see some familiar names in the Register comment box — I miss you guys! (And I really am working on a... Read more
Oh, but first, come see my post at the Register: “Not like that!” The spirituality of The Mummy. The post may be silly, but it’s witness to a miracle: I was able to figure out how to post videos on a new platform while propitiating the feral kid, who sits behind my back and makes me play the squish game while I write. But you don’t want to hear about me; you want to hear about . . . .... Read more
