Movember fundraising is done directly on the charity’s website… no one gets a dime except the charity.The Dan and Amaury no shave November challenge - do we have any receipts where that money went too? I smell rats...Maybe that help fund the ruins 2:0
Well the b n b,would be a different type.I don't know much about insurance, but I would think it difficult to get any for that monstrosity. So does that mean she doesn't have liability insurance either? Surely, she must have it in order to run the BnB?
I was raised Catholic and when the exposure of abuse started coming out my mother asked both my brothers, who had been alter boys, if they had any untoward experiences with any of the priest, which I'm sure was extremely difficult for her, thankfully they had not. It was unconscionable that the church tried to dismiss it. They still haven't come clean about it. Many priests have just been shuffled around or stuffed away somewhere.I’ve always been rather taken aback at the “shock” and “surprise” when the catholic church’s abuse history was made globally public. I’m not catholic though I’ve dated some who were. It was always local knowledge which priests to avoid and which laymen were enablers here. Being that Louisiana is rife with catholic clergy you can’t throw, well, anything without hitting a church, orphanage, convent or retreat house. It was general knowledge that it was a problem that kept getting swept under the rug. As for public perception I can’t tell you how many borscht belt comics I’ve heard tell jokes about priests and altar boys. Entire comedy routines were built around clergy abuse and the church’s response. Yet the world recoiled in horrified shock as if the church would never condone such an action. For pity’s sake, they’ve been sending children and wives back directly into the hands of abusers for centuries. And allowing a diocese to file bankruptcy protection for it’s assets instead of appropriately compensating its victims isn’t just shameful, it’s criminal in my opinion. Personally I think any and all enablers who assisted in the abuse and/or resulting coverup should find themselves permanently imprisoned. Or facing capital punishment. And there is no mea culpa that can void the sins committed against children, period! No discussion, no debate and definitely no forgiveness. There is no good deed that can negate these events. Apologies for the rant. I’ll step down off my high horse now…
i once had a conversation about this with my fathers sister, who lived in a convent..,i said to her, did you know these things happened...yes she said... those priests just went to another place...where the abuse for sure continued...and nobody even mentioned it..I was raised Catholic and when the exposure of abuse started coming out my mother asked both my brothers, who had been alter boys, if they had any untoward experiences with any of the priest, which I'm sure was extremely difficult for her, thankfully they had not.

PolarI -For true, as we say in New Orleans. I’ve long suspected this was because they had to find euphemisms for everything! I mean really, “mendacity” instead of homosexual Mr. Tennessee Williams! Almost as bad as Thomas Hardy’s love of having major plot points occur between chapters simply because he couldn’t bear to write them! That said I do enjoy Thomas Wolfe’s turn of phrase and I’ve admitted here to never having met a run-on sentence I didn’t like.
There nearly 18 years and the shutters are all different coloursJust wanted to say thanks for all of the laughs this year, I’m looking forward to sharing The Heaps 2023 journey with you allEspecially watching how Fanny Flash will navigate her way around this whacking great gaping problem. Let’s hope karma finally takes the upper hand and exposes her scheming, money grabbing FAKE ways

Isn’t she allergic to horses?eww look at the skin on Fanny's arm up close in the one with Potts dressed as an Arabian shite. They really are a bunch of preening imbeciles aren't they, such vanity. Why is Fanny dressed in jodhpurs and a hacking jacket? I guarantee she can't ride- Phillip or a horse.
Uncle before he was baptised in the Lalande chateau diaries cultureI don't mind brooches on men but they'd have to be small, tasteful and relevant, like medals or badges.
and workIsn’t she allergic to horses?
I dunno - I've seen men wear badges and medals - is that the slippery slope to hedgehog and squirrel brooches?I've seen Uncle wearing brooches, what's that about?
I've tried and tried and still can't remember my Father wearing a brooch. Neither I nor anyone I know who is male (let alone gay) wears a brooch. There must be something in the water at the ruined farmhouse.
her eyes are so reptilian very odd and cold they weird me out so totally strangeFanny before fangs are fixed…..
They had a mouse in the kitchen cupboard… Squirrel would have loved it.
And Fanny paints over cracks in her bedroom. She has never done things properly. Why would she start now?
her eyes are so reptilian very odd and cold they weird me out so totally strange. Fanny has had more work done on her teeth than the chateau in 18 years ha ha
The movie Spotlight - released in 2015 is well worth a look - albeit only dealing with what happened in Boston.I was raised Catholic and when the exposure of abuse started coming out my mother asked both my brothers, who had been alter boys, if they had any untoward experiences with any of the priest, which I'm sure was extremely difficult for her, thankfully they had not. It was unconscionable that the church tried to dismiss it. They still haven't come clean about it. Many priests have just been shuffled around or stuffed away somewhere.
Brooches are for ladies mostly older ladies to be fair I’ve become one of the brooch Wearing ladies but to be fair they are my grandmothersI dunno - I've seen men wear badges and medals - is that the slippery slope to hedgehog and squirrel brooches?
