Is Brackettville's Knights of Columbus 8223 organization currently suspended?

By their own national headquarters?

Accused -- at last! -- of real deal financial hanky - panky?




Or did somebody simply "forget" to mention in the St. Mary Magdalene's bulletin that there would be the usual K of C monthly meeting next Sunday, September 5th? :)

"He showed that premarital involvement with just one sexual partner ...

"... tripled the risk of divorce..."



From the article, "Don't wait for marriage" in U.S. Catholic -- September 2010 by John Van Epp, author of How to Avoid Falling for a Jerk.


"I like to refer to this attitude as What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.

"Obviously, this cannot be true because what occurs in relationships, no matter how insignificant, carries some measure of influence on you, the way you think, and what yo take into your next relationship.

"As scripture says in what is both an encouragement and a warning, You reap what you sow.

"A sobering example of this was found in the research on women by Jay Teachman from Western Washington University.

"He showed that premarital involvement with just one sexual partner other than the person a woman eventually married tripled the risk of divorce as compared with those who had only had sex with their husband..."

Denme Chance!"

Con Germán Dehesa.


El Zócalo de Acuña. Miércoles 4 de agosto de 2010.


" Los que me van a escribir para frijolearme por este título tan rupuestre, absténganse, no pierdan su tiempo, soy totalmente consciente de que he incurrido en un coloquialismo que, además, emplea un anglicismo.

"¿Y qué?

"La bolsa no se ha desplomado, la salud del gabinete es buena, la oposición está atorada, pero esto ocurrió antes de que yo profiriera el título de esta publicación.

"¡Denme chance!

"Es el más aceptable título de los que se me han ocurrido en medio de este méndigo calor que me está derritiendo la piamadre, la duramadre y la aracnoides..." :)
