Via The Ark and the Dove, a Catholic Terps alumni blog, I discovered a great feature article about Sister Dede in the Washington Times. She’s Fr. Bill’s actual sister, a religious sister, and an army surgeon. There’s a great slideshow with it, though some of the images are distressing at first glance.
Also in Catholic Terps/friend news, the MOEs took a great picture at the March for Life that’s posted on the Dominican blog. This was the first year I wasn’t able to take the day off to go, and I definitely missed it…in between teaching classes and calling parents to tell them that their children have done no homework, of course.
Before the Super Bowl kicks-off this evening (haha, pun fully intended on that one), take a minute to ponder these football-related questions. :smile: I’m not much of a football enthusiast, so I am going to try my best on this one… lol.
- First of all, do you even plan on watching the Super Bowl? Nope. I could not care less about football. It would take concerted effort for me to care less. I did watch in my apartment junior year, though. We had a party, so that kept my attention.
- What are some of your favorite foods to eat during football games? I don’t watch or go to any. We had potato skins, though, and I love those.
- If you could pick the musical act for the half-time show, who would you pick and why? No clue.
- If you won tickets to the Super Bowl, would you go to the event or sell the tickets for a ridiculous amount of money? Honestly, I’d probably give them to a football fan as a gift before I sold them. When am I going to be able to snag a gift as impressive as that ever again?
- Name your favorite football movie, or your favorite football-related moment from any movie. Remember the Titans was really good. I also liked We Are Marshall. I can go for a good football movie, but only because they’re never just about football. I like the stories.

I’m listening to Pandora while grading tests. The tests are mediocre, but Pandora is great. Not only does it play perfectly through my computer speakers (loud enough for me; silent to my housemates despite my open door), but it/she just apologized for not being able to find info on Michelle Branch right away.

Then I accidentally loaded my blog’s admin screen in the same window, interrupting the music. You win some, you lose some.
