How did I miss him swimming the Tiber?

Then again, my first daughter was born in 2003, the next several months were quite the fog.

Just wait ... there are plenty more 'surprises' to come :-)

Congratulations on the birth of your first (and may I presume your second) daughter.

Actually, I didn't realize that he wasn't a Catholic. I saw him once at a dinner given by a Catholic group, about 10 years ago in New York City. I sat at a table with his wife.

Somebody later told me that he had been left very embittered by that horrible confirmation episode, which I can certainly understand. I'm really happy to hear that he has become a Catholic (like Justice Thomas!) and I hope he has been able to achieve peace and the understanding that he was right and he was being persecuted, essentially. And then that he has been able to unite his sufferings with those of Our Savior.
