puptrax: March 2013
http://puptrax.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 23, 2013. Morning has broken, like a new morning. I slept in this morning. My brain needed time to work through whatever is bothering it. It is spring, but the rain outside indicates it is not wise to do yard work. I will water the new flower in the shade under the mailbox, and perhaps shop for more later. We view sun as a blessing almost unreservedly. Rain less so. Yet God sends both to nourish the earth. In the meantime I will settle for:. I saw raindrops on my window. I saw raindrops o...

puptrax: Eric #11107 - part 3
http://puptrax.blogspot.com/2013/11/eric-11107-part-3.html
Saturday, November 23, 2013. Eric #11107 - part 3. Dear Eric #11107 - part 3. I have this exercise derived from an RCIA class I taught. I think it might make a good basis for discussion. I am posting each question as a sub thread to avoid having nine threads. We have all heard the term “my people.” We may have even used it. Consider using this term personally. When you do consider it personally, who is included in your personal “my people? Can you name one or more specific ways in which the Church is not...

puptrax: April 2012
http://puptrax.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 21, 2012. It is polite to say to someone "I understand" or "I'm sorry" or perhaps on fb 2day omg. For some things, though, empathy is not enough and understanding in not possible. I suspect being a victim of rape is in that category. However, I do understand more than I did months ago. No one touched or harmed my body but my mind has been messed with. I am on my computer much less often and blog seldom. Not just time but motivation. I look in awe at people who maintain sanity after rape.

puptrax: August 2012
http://puptrax.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 26, 2012. Cleanup on aisle 9 and Nuclear rocket power. First this guy is brilliant. http:/ whatif.xkcd.com/7/. But I have a possible correction to xkcd. DOE was formerly AEC. One of their labs was Los Alamos with a side order of Sandia. They were the first to test bombs in the SW desert. Killed John Wayne early, or at least accelerated his death from smoking cigarettes. Cleanup on aisle 9". Saturday, August 25, 2012. Violence in our midst disturbs us yet it goes on in nature all around us.

puptrax: the touchy feely parts of the ordinary form [of the Mass]
http://puptrax.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-touchy-feely-parts-of-ordinary-form.html
Sunday, August 11, 2013. The touchy feely parts of the ordinary form [of the Mass]. I’m a recent convert with Asperger’s. I have a REAL problem with the touchy feely parts of the “ordinary” form [of the Mass]. Before addressing the question in the original post, I want to say I also have been diagnosed by my own daughter w/Asperger's syndrome. I grew up in a relatively non-touchy non-feely environment. And I have been thinking about my posture @ Mass for some time. It can be hard to be a sibling. Gri...

puptrax: October 2012
http://puptrax.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 1, 2012. We learn language by putting words to images. We learn how images have common content and can be represented by the same word. For the word soul, pre-VII, I would say a fine crystal goblet. Grace then was a fine wine that could fill the goblet. Today I envision my soul more like a plastic cup absent-mindedly placed in a microwave - misshapen, with a hole, unable to hold any liquid. When I meditated on this though, it came to me that this image could have a use. Jesus in the garde...

puptrax: Eric #11107 - part 2
http://puptrax.blogspot.com/2013/11/eric-11107-part-2.html
Saturday, November 23, 2013. Eric #11107 - part 2. Dear Eric #11107 - part 2. The second issue that arises from your post is the tendency of some people to seek darkness. Just about everyone understands the light/darkness dichotomy - it is found in pop culture such as Star Wars. It was recently the basis of the Gospel reading of the wise and foolish virgins - a story rooted in real life even to the 20. Century (see Barclay's Commentary on Matthew). I am presently in the Washington DC area. The reside...

Saturday, February 22, 2014. The Red Rose Analogy. Receptionist: Hello, Welcome to ACA Flowers, My name is Trina. How can I help you? Customer : Hello. I received an email from Professional Flowers stating that my flower order has been canceled and I should go to your exchange to reorder it. I tried your website, but it seems like it is not working. So I am calling the 800 number. I am sorry about the website. It should be fixed by the end of November. But I can help you. Customer: What's the difference?

puptrax: May 2013
http://puptrax.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 13, 2013. 2013 Baccalaureate Mass @ Thomas More College. How many faculty there were? Did anyone do due diligence? The point of a Mass is gathering of the people of God to worship. Anything that impedes that gathering needs addressing before the service proceeds. The ultimate responsibility for the gathering resides the presider and the community itself. Sr Margaret and some of the faculty are to be congratulated for their makeshift adaptation. Sunday, May 5, 2013. I have resisted even thinki...
