What about the Boondock Saints?  Somehow I think DK loves them ;)

The brothers MacManus are actually my favorite vigilantes. I don't know if there's much of a debate to be had with them, since 1.) they don't wear costumes, and 2.) they're actually funded and supported by various Church organizations, including the Holy See. According to the second film, anyway.

Praying for the dead is important. PM me if you need a cantor for the Requiem Mass of a deceased friend or family member. Have cassock and surplice, will travel. (Will also do weddings for a reasonable price.)

The cosplayers would probably be fat chicks, anyway.

Some are, yes - but not most! At least, not around here... not sure about Texas though (wink!)

I call this city Fat Antonio for a reason. Everything's bigger in Texas. Especially the women's pants sizes.

There's a colleague at work who had lived in Nebraska for a few years for University and LOVED IT for one thing because all the women's normal-size clothes were always on special... which ain't the case around here!

You have a weird definition of canon, dude! LOL

Well, you know what I mean.

Give TAS credit for the fact that it introduced Harley Quinn into the comic canon.

Actually I Googled it and other comic book fans refer to it as the canon too.  It ain't just HK.

It's because he referred to it as "the canon one"... whereas in my mindset, the actual comic books of comic book characters should have primacy in the canon, rather than other media appearances.

Of course, you defend yourself and help your neighbor in a matter of necessity, but beyond that, you're still a private person. In the absence of public authority and legitimacy. I do not lean against the No. However, individuals may be able to establish a form of political structure. Has anyone ever addressed the issue of theologians

" When I think that we are in the building of the Holy Office, the outstanding witness of Tradition and defender of the Catholic Faith, I cannot help thinking that I am on my own territory and that it is I whom you call ' the traditionalist' who should be judging you." -  quote from Archbishop Lefebvre when questioned by the CDF


"Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre and Bishop Antonio de Castro Mayer are the two great saints of the modern Church. Once this catastrophe ends they will be instantly canonized." - Father Malachi Martin
