Docked at Patheos!

Last updated on: January 24, 2017 at 6:20 pm   By Frank Weathers

All hands, we have arrived at Patheos a little broken, but unbowed. Heavier than expected weather has knocked away a few spars and we will need to make repairs before heading out to deep water. This will also bring the opportunity to scrap the barnacles from our keel, pump out the bilge, repaint, etc. (more…) Read more

For the Faith of Andrea Doria at Lepanto

Last updated on: June 7, 2015 at 10:39 pm   By Frank Weathers

—Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary   When I was a kid, I really enjoyed reading history. Usually, I wasn’t reading the history that I was supposed to be reading in the classroom.  I really didn’t do that well in school until I served two hitches in the Marines and then decided to get out and go to college. Grade school and high school? Homework, schmomework! When Christmas loomed in our house though, my mom knew what I was... Read more

A Brief U.S. History of Corporate Whining

Last updated on: January 24, 2017 at 6:20 pm   By Frank Weathers

Heh. Before you get your dander up, turn red in the face trying to scare me with the facts of the imminent demise of all that is right and true about the American Way, I’ve got one word for Corporate America: quitcherbellyachin’. And Wall Street firms: Don’t even think about lowering executive compensation or bonuses. That’s unconscionable. Instead, lay off the cannon fodder, make the remaining folks count paper clips, drink smaller cups of coffee, and stop using their company... Read more

Back in the summer, I happened upon this video of the commencement speech he gave at Stanford University. Take a look, His purchase, and further investment in, PIXAR brought us Toy Story and all the rest of the award winning animated feature-length films the company... Read more

For All the Saints: Francis of Assisi, Deacon

Last updated on: May 1, 2015 at 2:28 pm   By Frank Weathers

It’s the feast of St. Francis of Assisi today, in case you didn’t notice. True story: My grandfather was a Catholic and his name was Francis too, and he was named after the fellow you’ll be reading about below. As it happens, that is also how I came to be named, but the Catholic connotation of that Christian name lay dormant for some great length time. My grandfather died, see, when I was a wee tot and my memories of... Read more
