I looked this up after Cokie Roberts referred to it:
When Archbishop Philip Hannan got a phone call from Gov. John McKeithen in 1966, right after the NFL had awarded an expansion franchise to New Orleans, McKeithen asked the prelate if the Catholic Church would object to the team being called the Saints. Hannan replied that he had no objections — but he reminded McKeithen that, "from the viewpoint of the church, most of the saints were martyrs."

Oh, god, I hate the Teacher function on the Scrabble app. That way you can definitely find out you had a seven letter word that hit a triple. How is that ever healthy? Why can't I stop hitting that button?

Oy, I'm a bad daughter. I'm not going to make dinner for my folks tonight, I just don't have the emotional energy. Shall call and claim I'm coming down with something (which is true--but I'm still going climbing and then out for Mexican tortilla soup).

You are not a bad daughter, you're just a human being that needs a break.
Not going crazy is a gift to everyone who loves you.
It's a mental health thing. You're doing the right thing.
Meanwhile, still having new dvr/tivo issues.
