I remember a rather bleak and cold winter's day around 1989 when one of the religious brothers wanted us to hear mass and got the school's priest to celebrate one. The priest, who we knew as Cowboy Joe for his predilection for cowboy boots was a no-nonsense sort of a character who'd rather get to the point quickly. Brother Felix wanted a mass with hymns and everything but Cowboy Joe had something else on his schedule and didn't want anything sung as this would lengthen the mass for no good reason. They ended up punching one another on the alter because Br Felix insisted on singing ... much to our amusement and delight :) UT They never really gave us a good example though.

Matter of survival. I was one of them for 12 long years. I never told the truth in confession, never told the priest that I was responsible for the chronic shortage of the Holy Host. I used to sneak into the church before mass and have the Holy Host for snack. The catholic schools breed compulsive liars in and out of confession. Matter of survival.

But I remember how terrible "Bloody" was when we were seven, so UT's comes in a close second for the sheer audacity. Anyone else want to share? Francesca you win so far with the stolen bicycle fib!
