Does anyone else have the Holy Thursday tradition of visiting three churches in the evening? My second wife used to visit 7 churches on Holy Thursday when she was a kid... she told me that it was some old tradition but I don't know the details. Her background was Irish/Polish; maybe it had to do with the background? (BTW - She came from a family of seven kids and they were all named after saints).

Yogi, I hope your son is feeling better. I know how important football is to him. Did the poor guy have a concussion? He had a sore head yesterday Klyd and he has a stiff neck still today but he seems okay now to be honest. He is prancing on and off the Wii as i post this and talking about being ready to play football next week if he puts a head band over his scar...... The kid is keen  I told him that when he gets older girls will love his scars? He told me "Uuuuuuuurrrrgggghhhhh" He will sharp change his tune 
I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees!

That looks like a place Hansel and Gretel would visit. It is really nice. Can they ship via UPS?

I was re-tagging some of my Facebook photos and came upon Clem Caserta so went to IMDb to see if his Jimmy Whispers Returns to Mulberry Street (2004) home movie ever did anything... and lo and behold I found the less-than-glowing review on the page was written by plawrence!

Does anyone else have the Holy Thursday tradition of visiting three churches in the evening? I've never heard of 3, but have heard of visiting 7 churches on Holy Thursday. From what I can remember I think that the significance of visiting 7 churches has something to do with Christians visiting congregations that they wouldn’t normally see. That by going to churches in different neighborhoods it serves as a reminder that the church is a universal church. I talked to my sister who is almost Opus Dei and she says that she practices the tradition. She also says that at each church they wash the feet of 12 parishoners in remembrance of Jesus washing the Apostles feet.

Long as I remember The rain been coming down. Clouds of Mystery pouring Confusion on the ground. Good men through the ages, Trying to find the sun; And I wonder, Still I wonder, Who'll stop the rain.

BL, your parent's store only sells fudge and licorice? Just about the only thing you won't find are American candies that you can get anywhere else. They sell just about everything else though, including candy bars imported from all over the world. I know the licorice is the number one thing they ship because people can't get that variety aywhere else, and my Dad makes the fudge in the store with his own recipes, so maybe that's why they are the only two things on the website. It's such a small place run by just my Mom and Dad that they don't have time to keep up a website with every new thing that comes and goes in the store.
