Sorry to hear you lost your job but I am very curious as to what you responded to him!

Bomber, The Rev told the kid, "I could take a dump on you and I'd make a clean spot."

Yeah.

We need more teachers like Rev +k

Betcha Roethlisberger wishes the vatican was handling his punishment and not Goodell.

Yeah.

And maybe LD needs to get into teaching as well...

Sadly, as a Catholic, very true. Or maybe Goodell can take a page from the vaticans playbook and just ship him off to the EuroLeague

JT's Catholic too.  Dig the faith... not digging the leadership at this time.

Thoughts and prayers go out to our brethren in orange and maroon...

To be a traditionalist, congratulations to TheGroveBF.

Congratulations to the bride-to-be are deemed terming her 'desperate'.  Congratulations are to the groom-to-be as he is the one to have 'won the prize' of his lady's hand.

Signed,

The Victorian Manners Guy

[Ah, congratulations to you both. ]

+k for Victorian manners. Not nearly enough in evidence these days.

As a fellow catholic JT dlip is right with ya here. a ****ing shame how this **** has been handled...or not handled depending on the way one looks at it.

On another note Rothisburger's ass should be suspended if you ask dlip. Regardless of whether or not the rape took place (which dlip believes some type of sexual assault did take place but could be wrong) that ****in idiot continues to put himself in poor situations. He obviously isn't getting it and maybe he needs something to help him out some more. dlip heard he road his motorcycle to the club without a helmet that night as well...just kidding .

They are building a $60M High School stadium north of me. Sure, it's ridiculous, but hey, not my school taxes, so pretty cool.  Sure beats the portable wood bleachers they brought in for the 500 fans who watched Doid in high school.

The Rev was thinking about picking this thread up and moving it over to Politics.

JT, this problem, while world-wide is caused by the local priests and bishops, not the Vatican.  Bishops like Rembert Weakland, formerly of Milwaukee, used his seminary system to recruit and train predators.  The Vatican didn't know about it because he sent rosy reports, and other bishops who were of the same ilk backed each others' stories and even used the US Conference of Catholic Bishops to organize themselves into a solid block that forcibly maneuvered around directives from the Vatican.

The Rev remembers in the seminary that the "Vatican" was sending inspectors to the seminaries to investigate if there was a problem with our sexuality.  The problem is that the USCCB gave the Vatican the list of inspectors they would be using.  In The Rev's case, a priest who had a "protege" (if you catch my drift) in the seminary in Baltimore (St. Mary's a.k.a. "The Pink Palace") was sent as an investigator to Baltimore.  He gave it a clean bill of health even though those of us who are straight avoid the place like the plague.

The Rev is actually very proud of himself nowadays.  Back in 1995, Rev's home diocese rejected him for being too conservative and perhaps sexually dysfunctional*.  It turns one of the priests who railroaded The Rev was later arrested, charged, and found guilty of dinging high school and college boys.  The Rev guesses he should have accepted the invitation to see Broadway shows and spend the night together and he'd have been next in line to be bishop of said diocese.

This whole scandal was created and orchestrated by the group we call the "Lavender Mafia" the gay and gay-friendly bishops who hunted and destroyed healthy men, while they created a deeply troubled and vicious culture in the clergy.  Vicious to the point that most priests are terrified to speak out because the ones who have defied the Lavender Mafia have either found themselves without parishes and some have ended up dead.  No exaggeration.  The Rev was run out on a rail by a real viscous bitch of a priest.

The current campaign to paint the situation as if Benedict XVI was the cause or at least complicit in the abuse has been completely run by the Lavender Mafia who is feeding AP incomplete stories and convenient documents out of context.

The only thing The Rev can say that Benedict XVI should have done is clean house when he first entered office.  The problem is that it's hard to clean house when the guys he has to delegate his authority to actively confound his efforts to make things better.  The people who need to be arrested and executed are the US bishops (minus a handful of good ones like Chaput, Dolan, and Olmstead) and a boatload of priests.  The Rev would be happy to get on the Vatican payroll to help clean up the mess if they'd hand him a sniper rifle and a passport with diplomatic immunity.

Just the view of one former insider whose anus was sought after but never penetrated.

* - The Rev's dysfunction is a high-level attraction to Asian chicks half my age.  But The Rev isn't really sure how that is a dysfunction.

By the way, The Rev's school is imploding.  The same principal who decided that The Rev must go immediately has decided to pack his bags and leave at the end of the year.

If you are a teacher or school administrator who would like a little adventure of living in a town of about 100,000 people in South Korea, please let The Rev know.  We have modern apartments and many of the amenities of the US.  I have to admit this is not the most exciting town I've ever lived in, but it's super safe, and pretty nice.  Salary for a Principal and Head of School would be really good for here but not as high as in the US.  Then again, The Rev's tax rate is only 2% here, and the apartment is provided by the school, so The Rev is able to live better than the raw numbers would make it appear.

And we're also looking for Kindergarten and 5th Grade teachers.

Does this mean you get to keep your job after he leaves?

Maybe.  The crazy thing is that The Rev might end up becoming the interim principal because The Rev has longevity in country.  If so, a bizarre twist of fate.  The Rev is not sure what will happen, but assumes there will be a long conversation on Monday to figure out what the heck is going on.  Then again, The Rev may be a goner no matter what.  If so, no problem because The Rev is resilient and I know I am to blame for the situation, so I don't have any resentment or anger.  The Rev f-ed up.  The Rev must pay consequences.
