Ready, set, Triduum.

It will be a joyful Easter Monday indeed.

Random story -

While I was walking to lunch earlier today, there was some sort of demonstration being put on by some sort of Southeastern Asians, protesting the extradition of someone named Ly Tong. I had no idea who or what the deal was, so I just checked it out on the ol' Wikipedia.

Read his story.

Looks like he's about to be thrown into Vietnamese death camp for about ever. Friggin' commies.

Check out Yahoo Maps. I'm always partial to Google anything, but these are much higher res in some cases, and have really nifty features. Decisions, decisions....

Being as it is Maundy Thursday, I feel it appropriate to share with you a couple of stanzas from the most sublime of all Eucharistic hymns, written by the greatest theologian in the history of humanity - the angelic doctor, Thomas Aquinas.

Pange lingua gloriosi
Corporis mysterium,
Sanguinisque pretiosi,
Quem in mundi pretium
Fructus ventris generosi
Rex effudit Gentium...

Tantum ergo Sacramentum
Veneremur cernui:
Et antiquum documentum
Novo cedat ritui:
Praestet fides supplementum
Sensuum defectui.

Obviously, I won't be around tomorrow, so happy Easter to you all in advance.
