Mmmm...B&N...
My siblings are back from Germany! Just talked to my sister for an hour and a half, until the phone died. Too fun.
Once the phone is charged, I'll hafta get the rest of the story...and then start on my brother's side of it all. Then catch them up on my life, such as it is. ;-)
I hope they had a good time. We watched a nice biographical movie of JPII last nite (TiVo'd from the Hallmark Channel, I think) and marvel at the horrors that continent has seen - in recent history, even - and how it formed his message of hope and life. Much food for thought in that film. I hope that BXVI has the same resonnance with the youth. They need a role model who will lead them away from Godlessness and dispair.
Anyhoo, packing up. Will head out soon.
