Reinforcements Have Arrived
Father Rich and Dr. Bob have arrived, delayed by the bishop's visit to Rich's parish yesterday. The bishop expressed interest in joining the Men's Retreat, but Rich refrained from the obvious temptation of saying heretics were not allowed.
So what is the TMR reading? Steve us reading Victor Navasky's memoirs in galley form (for a review, of course), finding it to be a surprising good book from such a plainly bad man. Jeff Van Schaick is reading Weigel's "The Cathedral and the Cube" (but also thoughtfully brought Weigel's biography of Pope JPII along); Jeff Patten is reading The Wilson Quarterly, Rich is reading the new philoso-thriller, "On Bullshit," and Dr. Bob is reading the health warning label on his cigarettes.
