I might add that being that EWTN is on all during Lent it has been interesting to the positive reactions of those who provide respite for me/KV.
One of the medical careproviders mentioned that the men on EWTN such as the show the Goal Line (IIRC the title) are REAL Men and handsome....not like the whimpy guys in our community.
I said yeah I noticed that too and well now we know where all the good Men are in society. (tongue in cheek, I know some real good guys in other faiths too)
I also Like FR. Goetchel ??? the fellow with the white beard and aged.
Who is the Bishop(?) from another era (no longer living) that they run old shows of he is Red Caped and he is good in his sermons but he glares into the camara and does a Dracula eyebrow thingy cant help to giggle.
And the shows that take you on visual journeys.
They did one this month (several times) of Peters tomb and the history of it.
Lotsa good learning/teaching stuff.
Cant tell that I am ecstatic about our new tv channel nah.
Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, of blessed, BLESSED memory. He was a powerhouse/fireball/crackerjack homilist. He was also quite short. He spoke of his "angel" who erased the board while the Bishop spoke on other topics. You can get videos (CDs) of his programs in several places. Happy viewing!
That's Fr. Benedict Groeschel, CFR, a Franciscan friar from a community in New York City.
He's written some good books, has tapes & videos out, etc. Definitely a good one.
From time to time you'll see a 40-ish priest with beard and a deep, stentorian, commanding voice. That's Fr. John Corapi, SOLT. He has quite a story as well.
