Today we're a day late, but not because of the computer this time. It's been one busy weekend, so not much got done. Many of the segments were recorded yesterday, and the dates given reflect that. We landed up moving choir rehearsal from today to yesterday this week (normally we rehearse on Tuesday nights), as we have our Confirmation Mass tonight. Plus, I got to see my daughter in a play yesterday in her afterschool drama club. She really did me proud, like all my kids do!

Feasts for the week: April 9-14. For more information, see the New Advent Website.

Woohoo! We're up on the Monday this week, like we should be. Still having problems mixing to an .mp3, but I was able to mix from my wife's computer, then upload from my own computer. How did the files get transported from one machine to the other without file sharing? My trusty Olympus DS-30 (pictured at left), of course!

Sorry I'm late. Computer acted up on me all night last night trying to get my podcast up. For some reason, it would not let me mix the show I had prepared as an .mp3 file. But I had no problem mixing it as a .wav. This morning, it loaded as an .mp3 with no problem, which ticked me off because everything I had recorded was aimed around yesterday - the Annunciation, even with the praying of the Angelus Prayer.

Anyhoo, today it's all up - the Angelus Prayer, and the first of a three-part series on Pope Benedict XVI's Apostolic Exhortation, Sacramentum Caritatis. Today we cover some of the introductory sections of this very important document.

We've got two miscellaneous outbursts today as well.

Feasts for the week: Annunciation. For more information, see the New Advent Website.
Christus Vincit Semi-Live on the High Trail with the Bitmap: Bitmap and Snarky run through the music list for the Fifth Sunday of Lent. They even run into Shamus. The muddy trails will never be the same again!
