The Francis Effect: The Twerking Bishops of Indonesia
I still say that Cardinal Jaime Ortega, Archbishop of Havana, could beat them in any twerk off, though the fat bishop @ .58 would be a formidable opponent.
I've been commenting lately on your old blog, having found additional evidence of FDR's anti-Semitism, which I hold to be the real cause of the SS St. Louis tragedy. Old bloggers never die, they just take refuge in old blog posts.
Please feel free to reproduce this video on your blog; it deserves the widest possible dissemination. It is a remnant of antique Christianity when the leaders of the Church had not yet donned the gravitas which now disfigures them and they still sat with the faithful rather than standing at their head, taking their cues from the people rather than pontificating to them.
We may be sure that a man is sincere only when he is unconscious that he is making himself ridiculous. It is in fact the sheer ridiculousness of Jesus' life — God becomes man so that he can be crucified as the least of men as a testament to His omnipotence — that best attests to the fact that He was the Christ.

Hahaha! You gave me a good laugh.

I am very happy to see your name again in the comments section. If my #1 reader ever retires, I will, too.

Sorry my friend I have not been well, I shall never tire of reading you.

I am sorry to hear that you have not been well. I suspected as much but hoped for your speedy return.
Francis' visit to Cuba inspired me to a kind of prolixity unseen since the old Review of Cuban-American Blogs days.
But, of course, it was not as much fun blogging without you and that memorable cast of players at the RCAB.
And don't overlook this other video, which is a specimen of "black humor" without reference to race:

Manuel:
I'm back with bells on.
Manuel:
Ramon died, let us hope the other two follow soon.
