Today’s kitteh was rescued very young but has turned out well.

Kathleen had nice weather for her riding lesson today. I sat under a tree and made phone calls in Spanish for the church while acorns dropped on my head.

“Behind the church” is “detras de la iglesia,” not “debajo.” No wonder people were confused: I was telling them the class was underneath the church.

Not heard about this.
I guess Theresa is suffering from weight gain due to the H.o.P canteen deserts.
They have been waffling on about a sugar tax for a while.

In many UK Churches it really would be possible to hold the class underneath the Church.
The audience would be larger than you expected.......

I agree. On Cheezburger.com, many clever LOLcats are spoiled by having poor spelling or punctuation. Someone who does a lot of them gets his quotation marks wrong every time.

“Tax-chick’s Bilingual Supplemental Sacrament Class does Day of the Dead.”

Some churches in the U.S. have crypts. There’s a nice, atmospheric one at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C.

Just had a little look.
Ancient Roman Architecture with a splash of Venetian for seasoning.
There is almost every Church building style in the building from BC to 1400.

[Tax-chick]

Yeah, it’s a massive mish-mash. Future archaeologists will say, “What?”

[moose07]

Am opportunity to create a new Architectural style ref.
American Romanesque.

That could catch on......
:)

[Tax-chick]

Americans have been perpetrating atrocities with classical architecture at least since the Federal Period.

underneath the church.

Lol! That's rich!

[Tax-chick]

My prepositions are really weak. Once, I was trying to tell someone where to pick up a workbook, and all I could think of was “dans le table,” which doesn’t make sense in French or Spanish.

A valid statement only if your church has a basement. :)

Or possibly a crypt. Be a good place to hold some classes I suppose.

In life we are in death.

[Tax-chick]

We’re on a concrete slab. Some churches in the mountains have basements, but it’s flat here.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

I don't think I have ever been in a church in my state that did not have a basement.

That is where the kitchen is.

If I had a dime for every pan of peanut brittle I made in a church basement I could.... well... if not retire at least buy some new stock for my store.

[Tax-chick]

In my church, if you walk up the aisle away from the altar, you go through doors into the kitchen. It’s not the most functional design, but it was built in stages.

Survived another Cub Scouts meeting.

Remember this cat?

In other news from down the road a piece, the restored Sparta, NJ NYSW station opened to the public today. It was built in 1881. And then..

Well, check the link for the rest of the story. It's hiding in plain sight... ;-)

Yes, the tracks are active. No they're not using the water tower, it's only diesel on the main line.

"No they're not using the water tower"

... but it's full of water. I bet they're using it, just not for the trains.
