Mattie Has Bold Plans

So, Acme was having a sale -- turkeys at 29 cents a pound if you bought $50 worth of groceries.  I decided to buy and make a turkey, so I bought $50 worth of stuff -- sort of challenge, but there are things I will eventually need -- and I have a 8.4-pound turkey thawing in the fridge.  The plan is to brine it tomorrow -- I looked online for a recipe -- and then Sunday I will make it (I hope).  I made one in 2020 for COVID, and as I really like turkey... I figured I would make another.  I also like turkey chili, so I can make that as well; I mean, 8 pounds is a lot of bird...but I can make it last.  Unless of course I screw it up...

West Virginia upsets No. 15 Duke after 6 ejected in first half - ESPN

Funny; he is correct, 100%, and for all of this... he gets guys to play for him?  Mind you, his players love him, and it's not like they don't know what they are getting into.  Hell, he handled Draymond Green for a term!  I mean, in this day and age -- NIL, transfers, etc. -- it is good to see that one old guy is hanging on...

Nuncio in Britain says pope won't overturn restrictions on old Latin Mass | USCCB
Interesting.  On the one hand, no change, but on the other... well, the waivers are more liberal.  I wonder if this will be the "policy" going forward -- no open change, but waivers to anyone who wants them, no questions asked, possibly indefinitely... I think we can all live with that.  I realize Leo is an American (albeit from a Bishopric in the antipodes), but he should know that the growth in the faith is from the Latin Mass types, and the Francis policy of shitting on them...well, if that is gone, that is a.... a true blessing.
