Dear Brian and Amado,

Yes, we all have our cross to bear, don't we?

Good to see you are both in fine form!

As is our Anhelyna!

Dear Alex,

I will pass on some sage wisdom about anger management I received from a 9 year old recently--

"You know Mom, you have to count down (10, 9, 8, ...) before you Blast Off !" :p

Its amazing what a difference those 10 seconds can make. Welcome back to the fold.

Dearly Beloved,

You have no idea how much I missed you all!

The only thing better than conversing with you here would be to meet you in person - as indeed I had that pleasure when I met Cantorka Sharon Mech last year and one or two others!

Dear Amigo Amado,

Yes, I've had that affect on the Administrator of late, I'm afraid . . .

But as the great man of God that he is, he sees right through my impishness, childishness, egotism, crassness, rudeness and impoverished personal growth . . .

He knows there's a good man in me somewhere . . . smile

Dear Amado,

And you are so wonderful I sometimes mistake you for a Byzantine Catholic! smile

Dear Alex:

Now, now, . . .

Are you now transferring me to another jurisdiction? I thought I was "attached" to the UGCC?

Not that I am averse to joining the Admin's BCCA, but I am mystified (not miffed) at how easily you Easterns shift your fealty! wink

Ergo, I remain a Latin Catholic. Steadfastly! smile

Dear Amado,

That's O.K.!

Some of my best friends are Latin Catholics!!

(And I regard "Byzantine Catholic" to be a generic term.")

As for the Administrator's vision in this regard, I will bow out as I bruise easily ! smile

Alex
