What's wrong with St. Monica's? That was St Augustine's mother's name.

At least Arnold and Maria are Catholic and take their children to Mass.

Nothing wrong with it at all. I was just recalling a funny conversation I had about a week ago. I mentioned that my sister (who lives in Inglewood) went to St. Monica's, and the guy asked me: "Uh, what town is it in?"

Me: "Santa Monica."

Him: "Oh, really? That's a weird coincidence."

(The town was named for St. Monica, and the church was the first church erected there.)
