Today's Commemoration
Today (14 February) is the Commemoration of St. Valentine, Martyr. It is NOT a celebration of rampant hedonism nor is it the Feast of Ss. Cyril and Methodius, which falls on 5 July [Leo XIII, Grande Munus].

From the Index Non Prohibitum
The "Catholic" Quo Vadis (whose interweblog is on the Index and therefore should NOT be read) hath tagged me with a même.
1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).
It is entitled "I Am America (and so can you) by one of the last bastions of truthiness left in this nation, Stephen Colbert.
2. Open the book to page 123.
Bien sur.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
Je finis.
4. Post the next three sentences.
But my sheepskin announces to all assembled that though I may be a man of the people, I also have the keys to the clubhouse. I can't count the number of times I've heard the phrase, "You went to Dartmouth? I find that hard to believe." Admissions is an arbitrary and demoralizing process, and no matter how hard you work, the outcome is often determined by personal connections.
5. Tag five people.
Five is even more than showed up for Mass at our chapel last week, so I shall tag Fr. Heidrich and George.
-the Future Most Rev. Chadwick LeJanvier, SSLI, Bishop of Knoxville

Our Lady of Knoxville
Having examined the apple brought to me by George, I am officially declaring this an authentic apparition of Our Lady. Surely this portends God's blessings on our humble apostolate.
To celebrate this momentous occasion, a 72-hour MANDATORY period of fasting and prayer shall commence at midnight before the Image. Remember, all TRULY traditional Catholics must believe in the authenticity of this apparition DE FIDE, just like Fatima or Our Lady of the Roses.
A reliquary will be designed for this miraculous Image (pictured below) and will be promenently displayed in the soon-to-be completed chapel.

MIRACLE!
FR. CHAD! FR. CHAD! Just now I cut open an apple, but today I cut it sideways and found the seeds shaped like a star but even more than that there was an image of the Virgin Mary inside! I'll bring it over to the chapel at rehearsal.

Those who have walked in darkness....
Deo gratias! Finally we are able to pay our electricity and interweb bills. Money has been tight since the Borgias left us. They have gone on pilgrimage to Mexico for an undisclosed amount of time. They unfortunately left no contact information as they did not want Agent Smith to know their whereabouts for some odd reason.

Doctoresses
Bishop Williamson, SSPX has some poignant points to make about how erroneous it is for conciliar Rome to be giving the title "Doctor of the Church" to women. A contention he failed to mention is in the symbology of the biretta, implying the priestly authority of the Church being granted to them. Are we being primed for the introduction of "priestesses"?
Nota bene: the image below may offend SSLI members and benefactors!
Bishop Williamson's interweblog article may be found here. He has accordingly been added to the list of those who proclaim the truthiness of the Truly True Church.

I have been Tagged
1. Do you attend the Traditional Latin Mass or the Novus Ordo?
I attend the One, True Mass: a Traditional Latin Mass celebrated by the Society of Saint Leo I.
2. If you attend the TLM, how far do you drive to get there?
I live in the rectory immediately next to the church, so I walk. I don't even own a car, being made by the apostate scientists of the Modernist Age.
3. If you had to apply a Catholic label to yourself, what would it be?
A member of the One, Truly True Faith: the Society of Saint Leo I.
4. Are you a comment junkie?
That would be a grave sin of vanity. However, comments are very much welcome and appreciated.
5. Do you go back to read the comments on the blogs you’ve commented on?
Certainly. One wants to see the responses to one's messages, no?
6. Have you ever left an anonymous comment on another blog?
Moi? Certainly not!
7. Which blogroll would you most like to be on?
Though perhaps not traditional enough, I would be honored to appear on Archbishop Fellay's interweb links.
8. Which blog is the first one you check?
My nemesis, the interweblog of SOV2, but only to learn of what dastardly deed they are planning next that I may thwart it.
9. Have you met any other bloggers in person?
Only those who were at the Ecumenical Picnic last summer.
10. What are you reading?
Cornelius Otto Jansen, Augustinius
Bonus Question! Has your site been banned by Spirit of Vatican II?
This is true.
If it has, who do you think Father Tim really is?
I have known Fr. Plarvik for many years an I am not so sure he knows who he is himself.
Furthermore, Twisted Valley, the interwebsite that has tagged me with this même, has been deemed not traditional enough and is thus EXCOMMUNICATED from Truly True Church.
