Society says: "The Church is out of touch with society."

Jeff replies: "Society is out of touch with God."

I received this in my email today - I thought it was worthy of posting here. (I'm not sure where it's from, but if anyone knows, I'll give credit where credit is due).

I'm not sure how Squirrels can do the things they do, whether it be jumping ten feet through the air from a roof to a bird feeder (at my Aunt's house) or Climbing up a .5" diameter metal pole to get to a bird feeder (at my house)... but I'd like to be able to do some of the acrobatics that they can do!

Upon arriving home from the Seminary, I noticed a particularly intrepid squirrel that will hang around the bird feeder in my backyard (the same one that I snapped a few nice pictures of during Christmas break), climbing up the pole, eating bird food, getting scared and jumping off (when I knock on the window), then climbing back up again.

I have posted the paper I wrote for my Liturgy and Sacraments class, entitled "A Key to the Eucharistic Sacrifice," on my Seminary Website. Click here to read the paper.

In this paper I originally wrote for my Liturgy and Sacraments class at Cardinal Glennon College, I write about the importance of the sacrificial and covenental aspects of the Eucharist, especially in light of what is written in Scott Hahn's The Lamb's Supper.

Today, the Cardinal Glennon College begins spring break week (we will have no SLU classes next week). Over the course of the next week, I'll be visiting the 'deep south' (Washington, MO—what did you expect? I'm from North County), recording more vocal tracks for the Priestie Boyz' upcoming album, Lost in Ecstasy, and spending some time relaxing and catching up on my reading.

If you know someone I could spend a little time praying for over break, let me know!

I will be posting a few more entries this weekend, as well as a paper I've been working on, dealing with the themes of Sacrifice, the Last Supper and Holy Mass.

I noticed this article about the history of the cubicle on Fortune's website, and thought it was interesting enough to post a link here. The cubicle's inventor tells us that he didn't intend for the cubicle to turn into a 'cubeville' ( Dilbert terminology), but rather a creative workspace. Little did he know!
