I got the Chalice!
Our cousin Anthony is about to become ordained as a priest and he stopped off to show us his new chalice that he just got from the chalice store. It is a beauty. It has representations of Jesus, Mary and Joseph and some rubies and a cross on it made of Amethyst.
He used to be an FBI agent but he retired and became a Priest. We are going to his first Mass in a couple of weeks before he goes down to Delaware to get his parish assignment. He is having a party where half the people will be FBI agents and the other half Mafia guys he arrested.
The wife thinks she will get a discounted penance but I wouldn't count on that.

There is no plea bargain in Heaven.
Personally, I'd say there's no plea bargain in Hell.
She got the gold mine, I got the shaft.
The chalice from the palace has the pellet that is poison!
"One chalice gives life, the other death."
[a line from the new Johnny Depp movie...]
But the vessel with the pestle as the brew that is true!
serving society and then serving God - all in one lifetime.
Not bad. Not bad at all.
You must be very proud.
I am very proud hd.
Anthony spent his time in protective services so he bodyguarded a lot of famous people like the Queen, Princes Di, Mother Teresa, Pope John Paul 2 and Fidel Castro of all people.
