    I think you are underestmating Trump, he’s not going anywhere, and the Le Pen prediction seems very bold of you considering recent history…

    Thanks for writing your blog, happy New Year!

    #8 happened in the US about a year ago. The DC Madame’s little black book. I posted about it at Episcopal Cafe that meny clergymen were listed and I was lambasted for posting. That if their rector was on the list that wasn’t anyone’s concern but he and his wife.

    That’s either head in the sand or way too liberal for me.

    I’m not into facial hair either. Clean cuut & clean shaven is what I like.

    I think you’re right about Trump and, in fact, i think he will be gone within the first year (the Republicans will figure out they can’t control him and will find a reason to impeach, or he’ll resign in a fit of pique). Don’t bet on beards leaving; mine’s certainly not going anywhere (I hate shaving!)

  • Oh Lord, Kum by yah

    I’ve spoken before about my frustration over a day which is planned this coming Saturday in Stirling for the Scottish Episcopal Church to do some listening in the arena of human sexuality. I got rather bad tempered about it at one stage – more so than felt good. I hope that one of the things…

  • Ascension tomorrow

    Tomorrow is a glorious feast – it is Ascension Day. It is one of my favourites and celebrates one of those stories from the Bible (like the talking snake with legs in Genesis) that you instinctively know is true. Services at 11 am, 1.05 pm (in Glasgow University Chapel) and 7.30 pm. The evening one…
