That is great news, I have always been an admirer of his. Would you happen to know where to write to in order to get a holy card or two?

I like it when it's time to change volumes for just that reason. :)<BR/><BR/>(tip: folks, if you want me to pray for something in perpetuity, put it on a little card and slip it in my breviary!)<BR/><BR/>Any further thoughts on that thing we were discussing the other day?
