Well, I stand accused of losing the pre-mojo'ed host that allows our lay chaplains to offer communion when the priest can't be here.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
But it's not flesh of the Savior until the priest does his mojo over it during communion.
Until then it's just kind of a gross, dissolving cracker.
That's the catch I guess.
If you're not a believer it stays bread and wine.
If you ARE a believer you're not going to be making snacks out of one of your most sacred rituals.

I'm off to have my @#$% tooth pulled. A little no complications~ma would probably be in order.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
when I'm showering, the shower curtain is contstantly clinging to my gigantic wet ass, and I want to rip it down in frustration.

Because books.
Ooh, I like that first one, Sparky! Very nice.
We've stayed in Schooner Ridge, which is right on the beach (the development) and has a pool right on the dunes for the whole neighborhood. A lot of the homes have private pools, too. I can't remember who rents the bulk of them -- I think it was something like Carolina Resort Realty. (Schooner Ridge is in Duck, and walking distance to some shops and groceries.)
When are you going?

I think you misunderestimate what bored Catholic kids are capable of, even when they are believers.

But you'd need a priest at hand to do the blessing part.
It seems unlikely they'd play along.

And besides, the whole POINT of the ritual is to make a snack.

OK, she just came up and apologized "if" she made it sound like she was accusing me of losing/hiding the materials.
And, in case my snark didn't make it clear, I really *wouldn't* be so disrespectful of Catholic beliefs as to chow down on communion elements. Presbyterian with Baptist roots that I am, I don't believe in transubstantiation, but I couldn't work in this department if I wasn't flexible and respectful about the beliefs of others.
ETA Nebbermind. Conversation got all hilarious on me while I was earnestly declaring my Respect For All Peoples.
That's me. Way too earnest for my own good 90% of the time...
