Blogito ergo sum! Actually, as N.T. Wright averred, "'Amor, ergo sum:' I am loved, therefore I am." Among other things, I am a Roman Catholic deacon. This is a public cyberspace in which I seek to foster Christian discipleship in the late modern milieu in the diakonia of koinonia and in the recognition that "the Eucharist is the only place of resistance to annihilation of the human subject."

Help Me Mary Please
Liz Phair, like St. Paul is one born out of time- okay bad analogy- but she is also one born out of place (i.e., too late for the bi-coastal punk scene and in Chicago). Her music is an eclectic blend of pop stylings, punk, and Chicago electric blues. Along with my dear Beth, she is one of my favorite post-punk alt artists. Her album Exile in Guyville remains a classic, at least for me. Help Me Mary, performed live in London, is our Friday traditio. The video and sound quality are not the greatest, but that is okay for Lent.
