This Is Like A Time Warp Or Something!
OMG as the kids say. Yes, I guess the cover for Nuns Having Fun Calendar 2013 must already be ready to print. But I need to ask the question of the authors: "How did you know what the days were going to be?"

We are not really all that excited when something new comes along on the Internet. We are still looking for our password for our My Space site, but this Pinterest thing can be really cool especially with people who post great pages of catholic stuff including Growing Up Catholic. You can see more of her page here.

What do The Eagles, Tom Waits, Jackson Browne, Snoop Dogg, Yoko Ono and The Pope Have In Common?

They all have a contract with super entertainment mogul David Geffen. Yes, Il Papa has landed a big fish contract to produce an album. Let's hope the Pope gets The Stone Poneys to back him up or that he does covers from Late For The Sky.

The Original Father What-A-Waste

Sure Father Oprah (Father Cutie of Miami) is getting all the press but the original Father What-A-Waste (or Whatawaste if you prefer) is on page 42 of the New York Times Bestseller Growing Up Catholic.

Let's Say Good-Bye To 2009...Early!

OKay, let's face it. 2009 is going to be a wash. Bailouts and layoffs. Bonus armies of Wall Street are marching and the little guy can't catch a break. Well, let's just forget it and dance...dance...dance our way to 2010 with Nuns Having Fun Wall Calendar 2010!
These calendars are some of the bestselling each year and we know why...because nuns are forever and as long generations of Catholics remember they will be held in our fond memory.
Until 2010 rolls around so might also want to see the book that started it all: Growing Up Catholic. In print continually since 1984...longer than any book except that encyclopedia and the Bible...and a couple others.
Also see the Nuns Having Fun book which grabs much of the great stuff from the many years of calendars along with new material. Say it loud...I think I am Catholic and I am proud!

What Are You Giving Up For Lent? What Do You Have Left?

I will admit that the following "festival" marking the approach of Lent sounds suspiciously like a Seinfeld routine, but it's in a real Danish paper and it doesn't look like an Onion article...at least not intentionally.
"The major aspects of the Danish ‘Fastelavn’ are beating a cat out of a barrel, singing ‘Fastelavn er mit navn’ and Lenten buns.
In the game of ‘Slå katten af tønden (beating a cat out of a barrel)’, the children hit a suspended wooden barrel that is full of candy until the bottom of the barrel breaks and candy starts to fall out. The child doing this becomes ‘kattedronning (queen of cats)’. After the candy pours out, the game continues until the entire barrel is broken. The child who knocks out the last piece of the barrel becomes ‘kattekonge (king of cats)’.
Today, the barrel has the image of a cat painted on it. Historically, however, there was a real black cat in the barrel, and beating it was superstitiously considered a safeguard against evil. It was once believed that killing a cat meant a town could avoid the plague."

Streep's Nun Is Right Out Of Days Of Growing Up Catholic

Well back in the days of Growing Up Catholic and Nuns Having Fun we didn't have uns who looked like Streep--or if they did we couldn't tell--you know, because of the WHIMPLE.
Anyway, Newsday has an interesting piece about Streep's inspiration for her Oscar nominated role in Doubt which is a good read. Her portrayal is firmly rooted in 1960s Catholic school and a little bit of Rudy Giuliani?

America Has Spoken: Nuns Having Fun Is Recession Proof!

The Nuns Having Fun Calendar 2009 is well on its way to becoming a bestseller for the fifth straight year. Why? It's funny, it's tender, and it is a reasonable price for a great gift that gives 12 months long. The paperback book of best of the Nuns Having Fun Calendars called Nuns Having Fun (great title huh?) is also climbing the bestseller list and may take its place along with Growing Up Catholic the 25 year in print New York Times Bestseller by the same writers.
Don't fear the recession! The price is right for a stocking stuffer or office gift or just for someone you like (they don't have to know it didn't cost you an arm and a leg or a rapped knuckle.)
