Nope you're wrong HD...... the Itrailians up here bury St. Anthony, upside down, FACING OUT TOWARD THE STREET, because he is looking for the thing you can't find which is a buyer........ lol

So in your area it is St. Joseph? I'll refrain from asking if he is the Patron Saint of headaches.....;^)

[Hegewisch Dupa]

Fastforward to 6 months from nbow...WhyisaTexasbabeSTILLinPA? 'Cuz she's too freakin' stubborn to listen to experience.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Ok - so after I've buried St. Joseph AND St. Anthony in my yard, what else do I have to do?

By the way - several neighbors have sold their houses within DAYS after burying St. Anthony........ lol

[Hegewisch Dupa]

well I'm glad you are moving away from the heathens then

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Haha...... I grew up Southern Baptist...... we didn't know anything about Saints so I'm having to rely on my Catholic friends here........ Now with St. Joseph, do you have to bury him upside down facing outwards?

[Hegewisch Dupa]

I'll admit I forgot which way he has to point - but yes on the upside downness

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

What? So if I listen to you and face him the wrong way I might be cancelling out St. Anthony! Sheesh....

[Hegewisch Dupa]

You are getting to the point where St. Jude will be called for.....

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Uh oh..... is that a real Saint you are referring to, or St. Jude, the hospital?

[Hegewisch Dupa]

You are starting to drive me crazy, and not in that special fun way. St. Jude is the Patron Saint of Hopeless Causes.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Well you finally have me pegged! lol

[WinOne4TheGipper]

Looks like you pinged me by my old name (will1776). Can't tell you how much I missed you guys. I don't think I can regularly attend class until I get my home computer fixed. Please keep pinging me though. I might be here to strike post without you knowing it.

The Polack knows his saints. it is ST JOSEPH and you can buy this home-selling kit ONLINE! I notice that there is a fine print disclaimer saying that the $back guarantee does not apply to baptist,presbyterian,methodist, lutheran or any other non-Papist homesellers... ; )

[xsmommy]

SU will be on too late for me. but i am going to go watch MY TEAM now. let's go pitt!

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Well XS, these PA Yankee women swear by St. Anthony........ I'm so confused but decided to plant BOTH of these guys in my yard!

[Jaded]

Thank you berry berry much.

I am suffering major withdrawls and dt's. Haven't been able to get on since about 9:30AM. I'm having to eat chocolate to keep calm.

[secret garden]

I've heard of the tradition using a St. Joseph. It's a Catholic thing.

[secret garden]

I know you said not to worry about the Rangers game tonight, but it was touch and go there until the final minutes. Thankfully, the Preds won. And the Ducks lost, which was not helpful.

[Argh]

I see the commies are still in charge of this tournament...

[xsmommy]

it appears that both SU and Pitt....went.... : (
