Everyone else had on of these, so I wanted to make one. Please keep it cool though. Remember we are on a Catholic forum.

It is possible. However the rule is "absolutely anything" not "anything worthwhile." Thus, I offer the following Vogon-type poetry, since YOU ASKED FOR IT!!!!

Shave a heavy chicken, take a whale camping
Paint the chicken blue and stuff it with fondue
Carry an umbrella or the whale will put out your campfire -
Sure, why not in a Lithuanian flour festival!
Bake me an iceberg for breakfast and don't look for rhymes in this*
because there aren't any and neither is there a particular end to this poem except this one:
Did Horace and Regulus know each other - I don't know but you could probably Google the answer if you were interested - Augustine mentions Regulus in "The City of God" but whether Einstein had ever heard of him I don't know.

* After this everything is supposed to be on one line but due to the constraints of space it won't work.

Due to posters like me most people don't open a thread up like this.....

Pray that your loneliness may spur you into finding something to live for, great enough to die for.

I just wouldn't want to be the one who has to "mine" them outta the chickens...

Well.... heres the truth. They cut up a chicken and throw it ALL into a grinder and then they compress it inot nuggets. After that they flash fry it and put it in a truck. Then they get to McDonalds resturants where they re-heat them.

You too huh?

It was pretty much started by a member here named Randy Carson and it is sort of an unofficial group of us that are either converts or reverts to the Catholic faith.

Mainly it is our way of witnessing to non-Catholics that there are quite a few of us who have been where they are and have answered the objections to becoming Catholic that they may still be struggling with.

Maybe you've heard the old saying that someone who converts to Catholicism is referred to as "swimming the Tiber" since the Tiber river is the one that one crosses to get to Rome.

Does this count if you still went to Church but never really paid attention, and trashed your faith sometimes, and then came back to faith? how do you join?
