Interesting - the priest who kicked off the "What If We Just Said 'Wait'?" campaign in 2009, which was a protest against the New Missal's implementation occurring later this year, has decided to drop the subject (I blogged about WIWJSW? here).

Not much on their website indicates they're into the Catholic faith much.
Last week's time-suck was the Geography game - this week it's Hippopotamus. I made it through all 12 levels, finishing with 691 points.
And finally...the sad saga of the invisible bike. (warning: this image is ok, but the site is kinda-sorta NSFW if you go exploring)
p.s. Lent's coming!
Instant "Acts"ess
