Please pray for Fr. Groeschel’s recovery: he was reportedly injured in an auto accident Sunday night (January 11). Dom has a little more detail.
Update (1/14/04): A letter at the friars’ site has further information.

Merry Christmas! Now stick ’em up!

No, that’s not quite right. Anyway, we’ve got some new neighbors.

The word mavens of Sault Ste. Marie have filed their annual report on expressions we’ve all heard a few too many times: away with them!
Happy new year.
Update: Here’s the correct link for 2004.

I would like to give amateur Catholic Web sites — such as this one — a Christmas present. Or rather, an Ordinary Time present, because that’s when this project would be completed, without a doubt. I’d like to do a little “Saint of the Day” feature that could be inserted by anyone who wanted to include it on their Web page.
The HTML for the feature would be taken via client-side JavaScript, so the Web site’s owner would simply have to insert some Javascript on the site’s home page. Everything else would be taken care of by my server. I would think this might be a great little inclusion for many Catholic sites.
My question is 1) has anyone seen something like this out there? I’m not looking to re-invent the wheel; and 2) do you think other sites would like this? I don’t want to do this and find that I’m only doing it for my own amusement.
Oh, yeah — Merry Christmas!
