Subscriber Drive Reminder

During Lent, ending on Easter, I am holding a subscriber drive, with the goal of donating some of my wealth of hair for wigs. You can read some of the details in this post: A Hairy Situation. The quick version is: for every 1 paid or 10 free subscribers, I will cut an inch of hair and donate what I can. In the next few weeks one of my posts will contain details of where I will donate with your support.

It is amazing to think that in the month since this picture was taken, my hair has visibly grown! I may have to increase the inches goal to the color poll… © 2024 Andrea Holroyd

So, share my blog with your friends! Remember also, if I gain enough subscribers that I run out of hair, then paid subscribers will be able to vote on colors to dye the remainder.

Now for the meat…

My free post this week was some of my musings about Transfiguration, since that is the theme for this week in the church. If you want a refresher, click the button below.

2, 4, 6, 8, Let's all Trans

As you may imagine, my sermon further refined these musings - but I left out some of the jokes…

One very important first step, though, if you are not already familiar with The Vatican Rag, you should watch this first.

The other day, I woke up with the Vatican Rag in my head. If anyone is unfamiliar with Tom Lehrer, he is a comedic entertainer and mathematician whose satirical songs became popular in the 1950’s and 60’s. Naturally, he composed the Vatican Rag in response to the Second Vatican council; his repertoire was often political or topically based. Underpinning every song is his particular brand of humor, self-deprecating, if not smartly snarky. I enjoy it.
