By the nature of the priesthood, many of the frustrations and annoyances shouldn't be aired in a public forum, such as an open blog. If a priest starts complaining in public too often, it will get back to the ears of the bishop who might not be as appreciative of the priest's openness. I'm not saying this is what happened to Fr. Cranky, but it is something that priests need to be very careful to avoid. It's possible he may have decided on his own to freeze his blog for a time, or even permanently. Either way, I agree that we'll miss hearing his insights and crankiness. ;)Father Cory Stichahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16426512153670141621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-912950347138129741.post-77749053382132509432009-01-20T19:10:00.000-07:002009-01-20T19:10:00.000-07:00Re: Fr.

I don't know of anyone who's been invited, so suspect he's just closed it off. <BR/><BR/>I miss him. :-( <BR/><BR/>We all do.Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-912950347138129741.post-75377083921405351842009-01-13T20:21:00.000-07:002009-01-13T20:21:00.000-07:00Sounds great!

The movement of goods are as restrictive as the article shows, but Coca-Cola is everywhere.

We could give real support to our brethren in Christ, and you could bless their microbrew!<BR/>http://english.pnn.ps/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3168&Itemid=1Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
