Miscellaneous Rambling
There's a Thomas a'Kempis Twitter account. I went ahead and followed it, even though TaK wasn't particularly fecund in his literary output.
John Vianney's feast day tomorrow. He's the first parish priest to be canonized. The fact that no parish priest had ever before been canonized caused him a bit of anxiety during his life. Do something nice for your priest tomorrow in honor of this great, simple man.
And why don't I post the Vianney nugget tomorrow? Two reasons: (1) I want to give you time to plan something nice for your priest, and (2) Tomorrow is Friday, hence BYCU day. Since Vianney tried so hard to get his hard-drinking parishioners to practice moderation, I would feel a bit sheepish about posting BYCU and Vianney stuff on the same day.
