Wonderful Local Catholic/Patriot Needs Your Prayers September 18, 2020

It has been my great privilege over the past few years to become friends with my neighbor Steve Porter, owner of Porter’s Army Navy Store in Irving, a place frequented by many local Catholics, including a number of priests and brothers. The Porters are wonderfully devout Catholics, and as with many souls the Lord loves, they have had their share of crosses to bear. Quite possibly, more than their share. They are also incredible patriots, still performing annual fundraisers on Veteran’s Day to provide hundreds of boxes of goodies for servicemembers stationed in conflict zones overseas (for nearly 20 years now).
Steve is a great guy and has been enduring a number of health problems in this dread year of 2020. He is suffering from some acute difficulties right now. If you could, in your charity, pray for him, you can be assured of many prayers in return. Thank you and God bless you for your act of virtue.

I’m not dead, though this blog may as well be. In a desperate to attempt to recussitate it*, Eric Genuis is coming to Irving to give a FREE concert at the RBR Muzik School in Irving, Texas (3248 Skyway Cir N, Irving, TX 75038) on Friday, September 18th, and Saturday, September, 19th. There will be two concerts on the 19th. See below for details. The concert is free but donations are gratefully accepted for Eric’s charity, Concerts for Hope, a 501(c)3 charity.
An RSVP is required at the number above to attend, thanks to the ongoing cultural hysteria/desperate ploy brought to us by the Left and their ChiCom overlords called COVID-19/Kung Flu. The 5pm concert is geared for children/teens but kids are welcome at any performance. I doubt Mr. Genuis requires much introduction to this readership, but if you’ve never been to an Eric Genuis concert, this is an excellent opportunity to see a top-notch, world-class musician and composer in action. It’s also a great opportunity for a classy night out with the wife, maybe for the first time in months, while enjoying edifying music and solid Catholic spirituality. I have it on good authority that Mr. Genuis strongly prefers the TLM whenever possible.
All the other culturally enriching high-brow forms of entertainment have been closed for months so take this opportunity to enjoy some live entertainment with a good Catholic in a pleasant environment. It’s also a good way to stick it to the leftists who are desperately trying to steal an election by terrifying the public into compliance. I keep thinking more and more of the title of Metallica’s 1983 album.
*- As for the inference, I’m just kidding, this was just a fortuitous opportunity to try to electroshock the blog back into existence. Dr. Cal Brackett says, 400 watt-seconds, stat!
