- Borsalino. The golden era’s best fedora.
- Bobby Vinton. Climbing up the chart this week in ’63.
- From Cracked: five things that distort your perception. Your brain’s natural shortcuts, and understandable inferences, mistaking your limited experience for the whole picture. Magic tricks use this.
- From the Ochlophobist: Newman on the development of doctrine. I think here he was writing about the deposit of faith. ... the apostles had the fulness of revealed knowledge, a fulness which they could as little realise to themselves, as the human mind, as such, can have all its thoughts present before it at once. . .in an apostle’s mind great part of his knowledge is latent or implicit. . . I wish to hold that there is nothing which the Church has defined or shall define but what an apostle, if asked would have been fully able to answer and would have answered, as the Church has answered, the one answering by inspiration, the other from its gift of infallibility.
- From LRC: the truth behind British politeness. Now a classic.
- From Bob Wallace:
- The way America was supposed to be. Every government in the past, without exception, has disappeared. The culture has continued. This will happen to us, I believe in my lifetime.
- No one believes in equality because no one is equal.
- Garbage men and plumbers are more important than doctors.
Catholic integralism is the true seamless garment.
Don't apologize for things you didn't do, to people who don't believe in forgiveness or redemption.
