Promulgation of Norms for Tabernacle Placement

http://htxt.it/MUnq : "In recent years, the place of the tabernacle in our churches has become a source of controversy. This should not be. The Eucharist, whether we are referring to its celebration or to the place of reservation, should always be a means of unity and communion, and never of division."

Jet lag ending?

Perhaps the jet lag is finally ending. Only a short nap yesterday evening. Woke up at 2:30 AM again but managed to get back to sleep until just before the alarm went off.

Disney Cruise?

We're considering the idea of a Disney Cruise next summer. The prices look to be a bit over $1000/day for us. Have you been on one? What do you think / know about them?

Isn't Jet Lag Wonderful?

I get sleepy when I should be awake. I wake up when I should be sleeping. And my dreams are really weird - even by my standards.

Home Again

My bags all made it even though they got mis-checked in Singapore. I slept almost the whole way and still slept last night. It's good to be home.

On my way

My bags are packed, I'm turning of the computer, and getting a cab. Time to start the long journey home. I won't be back on-line before Sunday day stateside at the earliest. C u soon!

Heading Home!

My last night in Asia this trip. Tonight I pack. Tomorrow I start the trek home. Calendar time it will only take about 16 hours (Sat 7 am - Sat 11 pm). Actual elapsed time will be about 31 hours. I will land in LAX before I leave Taipei!

Street Crossing in Singapore

The two armies were amassed on either side of the battle field. Their uniforms were inconsistent from person to person and the two sides looked as if they were a single people. It seemed that the only thing that separated them was a short distance. I wondered what they were thinking, standing in anticipation with weapons in their hands waiting for the signal. Finally, after what felt like an eternity the signal came and both armies marched into the playing field staring at the opponents. The advancing lines were ragged - some broke forward quickly and some seemed to hesitate. Finally the two armies met at the middle and to my surprise there was no clash, no wailing of pain. The two armies managed to pass right through each other without injury. The reached the other side of the field were their opponents had been standing a moment before and suddenly they were transformed back into tourists and shoppers going about their own personal business and moving down the sidewalk in random fashion. That is, until the joined another army standing at the edge of the street waiting for the green walk signal to begin the charge again.

Arrg!

I just realized that hellotxt flipped the title and status panes.

Woke up to pork bacon at breakfast. I haven't seen pork in almost two weeks. Of course, I remembered it was Friday AFTER I ate it. The story of my life - a day late and a dollar short. Hi, ho, it's off to work I go...

We're not in Malaysia anymore Todo

The trip to Singapore was longer than expected but uneventful. I got to the hotel room just fine.

Landed in Singapore

Singapore!

The only constant is change. My travel plans got altered last night and later today I am heading to Singapore. Still coming home on the same day / same flight though.

Woot Off!

I think I did too mu

I think I did too much walking the last few nights. My back is feeling a bit tender today and I've got a long airplane flight coming up in 3 days. Time to rest and hopefully heal.

Souvenirs?

It’s so hard to find the family souvenirs. I’ll keep looking but I’m not really buying. Missed getting up into the KL Tower tonight by minutes. Last destination to visit? Times Square at Imbi...

Hard Rock Cafe - Malaysia

I wound up at the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner tonight. Interesting things happen when American cuisine meets Islamic state religions. Pork is at least rare here if not illegal leading to a pulled lamb BBQ sandwich. It was tasty.
