To: Alas Babylon!; All
Jesus Christ is risen today...hallelujah! Easter blessings to you all! Forget bonnets, we are putting on our Easter furs today in the Big Apple.

According to my guide, Chrissy Matthews will be addressing (breathlessly, I am sure) the issue of Rev. Wright this morning...I may tune in to avoid Bill R. (or Fu Manchu as Rush calls him). Eli Manning was on Fox and Friends this morning...I think it was a taped segment. The Presidential Seal was in the background. Quite a positive guy! The Ollie North special is on at 8 p.m. tonight, by the way.

I went to the Vigil Mass last night and while I was sitting in the dark was thinking--why don't they ever show those old classic films about Jesus anymore? I know they had the Ten Commandments last night, but you'd think someone would put on Zeffirelli's Jesus of Nazareth or The Greatest Story Ever Told...I remember them so fondly from when I was growing up. But then I also remember singing the Marines' Hymn in music class and Catholic hymns in choir at my public school. Oh, those were the days!

I remember a TV movie or miniseries about Jesus with someone literally racing across the ground to tell others about Jesus raising Lazarus, IIRC. The look of marvel and praise on the actor’s face as he was running and shouting was very compelling to me. Does anyone know what production this scene was from?
