- Today is Rocky's 54th birthday. We will go to dinner after Mass with some friends.
- There is fierce discussion in Catholic blogland about Benedict and Francis. I feel somewhat ambivalent. Is Francis really the pope? I don't know. It doesn't matter what I think.

He is acknowledged to be pope and he has the power.

- A new parish in Las Vegas is going to be built. When I saw the photos I thought it looked like something from a science fiction movie. When are church architects and the bishops who approve this stuff going to move beyond 1969?
