Love sports, love books. Have just grown to detest the modern NFL.
Back in my day, nobody gave two shakes about the NFL Draft, but hats off to the NFL for keeping the meatheads fixed on football this long.

I don't nose.
After a week, the sinuses are clearing and I feel like Noah after the Flood.

Back in the day, I had a typewriter. Been wanting to get back into this game for a while now. nostr:note1gm3ugqvq5ppmj00r2yh7qqu46fa40c9zs9efxv9z03m5cucdthzs9mym7g

For us, all depends upon what kind of clergy you are. Technically, our nuns and priests/brothers religious aren't "paid." But diocesan priests, who can own property, need a salary to live in the world, since that's where they work. But it ain't much, let me tell you. An old saying: "Religious take the vow of poverty, and the diocesan clergy live it."
I whine about this once a year, and have for 15 years... so see you again in a year.
One of the realities of taxes for priests: the IRS, because it operates on a Protestant model, sees us as "self-employed." I'm about as self-employed as a prisoner making license plates, as the nature of the Church dictates that the Bishop "employs" me to assist him in his ministry; I am fully dependent upon the consent of the Bishop in everything that I do. A long way to explain that I pay both sides of Social Security, which I shouldn't. nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzpzhmwh72ryutegfs8cpv0td4qnhvfl9q8ug5r3tq02lshlhazjdjqy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqg4waehxw309ajxjar5duh8qatz9aex2mrp0yqzqvfl63jhn7apqqc6h8z3lc5v3yhj3qug6jzp6deaewwqupdtcdjtxm52jg
Got absolutely decimated by taxes this season.

Splurging out on social media (with regard to a comment that was likely right) is not the way. https://chicago.suntimes.com/sports-media/2025/03/21/dan-bernstein-is-out-at-the-score-after-social-media-flare-up
