Story that makes one snicker
Have you ever read a story that made you snicker, then you felt guilty for snickering? The story below comes from the Cincinnati.com website, under their crime section. Father Orthoduck admits that this story made him snicker and then made him feel guilty for snickering. Nevertheless, it is somewhat funny. So, Father Orthoduck decided to […]
Hope springs eternal
All too often it seems as though we are in the same position as Linus in the pumpkin patch. We await something that will come only very rarely. Let Father Orthoduck mention that Linus never got to see the Great Pumpkin because he believed in something that did not exist. But, Father Orthoduck does believe […]
June Cleaver speaks “jive.”
June Cleaver died just 10 days ago. Baby Boomers in America sighed and felt the sorrow of losing a beloved icon. Who was June Cleaver?

Today, let me post an advertisement from the other extreme wing. Here is an advertisement from Florida that takes a small snippet […]
Latinos should not vote says political ad
A friend of mine wrote to me: From the news–perhaps a good blog topic for you would be the political ad directed at Latinos, urging them NOT to vote. Have you heard or seen this ad? Unfortunately, I have heard of this ad. It was originally put out in Nevada by a GOP-linked group. Already […]
Some thoughts on don’t ask, don’t tell and a judge’s ruling
As you may know: A federal judge formally refused on Tuesday to let the Pentagon reinstate its ban on openly gay men and women in the U.S. military while it appeals her decision declaring its “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy unconstitutional. A day after tentatively siding against the Obama administration, U.S. District Judge Virginia Phillips […]
