So I thought about it a little and I prayed on it and I listened to good advice from people like Ruth Anne and I finally figured out what to do,
I am going to plant some seeds with some of the lower level members of the crew. Several of them are Catholics and were upset they couldn't go to get Ashes.
I am going to sidle up to them and in casual conversation say "Yeah I got to talk to my cousin Timmy. I wanted to call him to congratulate him when he got back from Rome. He was pretty pissed that we had to take off our ashes. I hope he doesn't say anything about it on Sunday. He was real disappointed in TLC. I mean they were the ones who had to say that wear the symbol of our faith during a holy day. It had to be them. I don't the producer would take it on himself. It's a shame."

Well Trooper, now it's not a secret.
I had a black bean burrito last night and when I pinched my morning loaf there was a full black bean on the top of the pile this morning.
I thought to myself I would like to contribute to the suffering and starvation in this world and pull the black bean off the pile and send it to those suffering in Syria.
I bet that black bean could feed a family of 20.
This would be my small way to let the world know I care.

I'm in New York this weekend Troop, with the hubby.

You are always welcome Titus.
I have a very strategic meeting at Kantar Media Group on Thursday and the husband needs to be in New York for a month for a project. So we are going to hang out there for the weekend. He is staying in Jersey City.
Jersey City is supposed to be kind of hip. I don't know anything about Jersey. Is Jersey City hip? Which is hipper Hoboken or Jersey City? Which is easier to get into the city?

Timothy Dolan was Archbishop of Milwaukee, his brother was on some conservative radio talk show at one time.
Are you really related to him?
All the Irish are related because they all fuck their sisters.
Trooper, should you ever have the opportunbity to meet Archbishop Dolan, DO NOT let it pass.
I met him while he was Archbishop of the Milwaukee ARchdiocese. He is a wonderfully funny and engaging man.
He's also a vervent Yankees fan. He was recently quoted saying that people who think he'll be Pope one day are as delusional as Mets fans.
Norwegian humor --
Sven says to Ole: "Close your curtains the next time you're having sex with Lena. The whole street was watching and laughing at you yesterday."
Ole says: "Well the joke's on them, because I wasn't even home yesterday"!
Norwegian humor-
Ole is working in the yard and gets thirsty. He sends Lena to Svens bar to buy some beer.
Lena walks in the bar and says "Sven, Ole's purty thirsty and needs a beer."
Sven says "Okay Lena. Anheuser Busch?"
And Lena says "Oh, purty good! An' how's yer pecker?"
Ole and Lena were getting on in years. Ole was 92 and Lena was 89. One evening they were sitting on the porch in their rockers. Ole reached over and patted Lena on her knee. "Lena, vat ever happened tew our sex relations?" he asked. "Vell, Ole, I yust don't know," replied Lena. "I don't tink ve even got a card from dem last Christmas."
A young man walks through New York Chinatown and notices a shop with the name Hans Olaffsen's Laundry. He thought it seemed out of place but curiosity got the best of him and he walked into the shop. He sees an old Chinese man sitting in the corner.
He asked the old man, How in the world did this place get a name like Hans Olaffsen's Laundry?
Old Man - That's the name of the owner.
Young Man - Who's the owner?
Old Man - I am.
Young Man - How did you get a name like Hans Olaffsen?
Old Man - Many years ago when I came to this country from Hong Kong, I was standing in line at Immigration. A man in front of me was a big blond Norwegian. The lady from Immigration asked him, What is your name? He say "Hans Olaffsen". Lady ask me, What is your name? I say Sam Ting.

Ole and Sven die in a snowmobiling accident, drunker than skunks, And go to Hell. The Devil observes that they are really enjoying themselves. He says to them 'Doesnt the heat and smoke bother you?' Ole replies, 'Vell, ya know, ve're from nordern Minnesooota, da land of snow an ice, an ve're yust happy fer a chance ta varm up a little bit, ya know.'
The devil decides that these two aren't miserable enough andturns up the heat even more. When he returns to the room of the two from Minnesota , the devil finds them in light jackets and hats, grilling Walleye and drinking beer. The devil is astonished and exclaims, 'Everyone down here is in misery, and you two seem to be enjoying yourselves?' Sven replies, 'Vell, ya know, ve don't git too much varm veather up dere at da Falls, so ve've yust got ta haff a fish fry vhen da veather's dis nice.'
The devil is absolutely furious. He can hardly see straight. Finally he comes up with the answer. The two guys love the heat because they have been cold all their lives. The devil decides to turn all the heat off in Hell. The next morning, the temperature is 60 below zero, icicles are hanging everywhere, and people are shivering so bad that they are unable to wail, moan or gnash their teeth. The devil smiles and heads for the room with Ole and Sven. He gets there and finds them back in their parkas, bomber hats, and mittens. They are jumping up and down, cheering, yelling and screaming like mad men.
The devil is dumbfounded, 'I don't understand, when I turn up the heat you're happy. Now its freezing cold and you're still happy. What is wrong with you two?'
They both look at the devil in surprise and say, 'Vell, don't ya know, if hell iss froze over, dat must mean da Vikings von da Super Bowl.'
Sven and Ole jokes never get old, do they?
