The Inn at the End of the World: And speaking of music . . . .
http://thesixbells.blogspot.com/2015/08/and-speaking-of-music.html
The Inn at the End of the World. Thursday, August 13, 2015. And speaking of music . . . . After something of a dry spell, I'm looking at two gigs in a row. I had to do a bit of re-hemping maintenance yesterday that I've been putting off. The blow stem joint, as is its wont, was getting a bit grotty. And that reminded me that the drones hadn't been oiled in a while. And that reminded me . . . and there went the afternoon. Posted by John at 1:03 PM. FEAST OF OUR LADY OF WALSINGHAM.

The Inn at the End of the World. Thursday, July 02, 2015. July 2 - The Visitation of Our Lady to her Cousin Elizabeth. John Mason Neale's translation of O Gloriosa Virginum. The Lauds hymn for today's feast:. O GLORIOUS Virgin, throned in rest. Amidst the starry host above,. Who gavest nurture from thy breast. To God with pure maternal love:.

The Inn at the End of the World: On Not Living in Fantasyland . . . unless you're a Disney character
http://thesixbells.blogspot.com/2015/07/on-not-living-in-fantasyland-unless.html
The Inn at the End of the World. Tuesday, July 07, 2015. On Not Living in Fantasyland . . . unless you're a Disney character. I was reading The Remnant on-line this morning, and in particular, this article. Explaining what ought to be obvious but obviously isn't: acknowledging reality is a good thing; ignoring it is not. And someone else reminded me of Kipling, who also thought that one ignored reality at one's peril. Although, here a somewhat different aspect of reality, to be sure. They denied that the...

The Inn at the End of the World: Hacking . . . or something
http://thesixbells.blogspot.com/2015/06/hacking-or-something.html
The Inn at the End of the World. Monday, June 22, 2015. Hacking . . . or something. When is hacking not hacking? Do you remember the news story of a couple of weeks ago wherein it was revealed that the government data base giving the details of everyone who is or ever was a government employee or contractor had been hacked? It seems it wasn't hacked. Lots more interesting - not to say appalling - stuff at Ars Technica here. Including this in the penultimate paragraph:. Posted by John at 12:37 PM. St Thom...

The Inn at the End of the World: Why Does the Republican Party Exist?
http://thesixbells.blogspot.com/2015/07/why-does-republican-party-exist.html
The Inn at the End of the World. Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Why Does the Republican Party Exist? Is it just an arbitrary entity seeking a universal negative, designed to push back against Democratic policies and demand they be more something (efficient) or less something else (expensive)? Or does it have actual principles and priorities it seeks to make a reality? So why does the Republican Party exist? This article does give an answer. Posted by John at 9:23 PM.

The Inn at the End of the World. Tuesday, July 14, 2015. For those who enjoy terror, murder, rape, and general slaughter of the innocent, this is your holiday: Bastille Day. Reprints this little memorial every July 14 and when I remember in time, I have followed his lead. I remembered today. Just. The link is here.

The Inn at the End of the World. Thursday, August 13, 2015. August 13 - St Lelia. In the old calendar, St Lelia's day was kept only in the diocese of Kerry. The new calendar she shares yesterday with Ss Muredach and Attracta. There is more on St Lelia here. But alas, largely speculation. Posted by John at 11:27 AM. FEAST OF OUR LADY OF WALSINGHAM.

The Inn at the End of the World: Hymns
http://thesixbells.blogspot.com/2015/06/hymns.html
The Inn at the End of the World. Sunday, June 28, 2015. The hymnody at our parish had a theme today. Most - perhaps all - of us had last week's judicial legerdemain in mind and what it will mean for our church and our nation. Our priest gave a thoughtful sermon on the subject. And our music director clearly had it in mind. The London Philharmonic Choir in the video above only sings two verses. We sang all four. 1 Once to ev'ry man and nation. Comes the moment to decide,. For the good or evil side;. Poste...

The Inn at the End of the World. Wednesday, August 12, 2015. An Inquiry into the 'State of Popery'.
