I seldom visit the St. Josephs Oratory because it hurts my knees.I need practice before kneeing my way up a long flight of stairs.
This has led me to a few unfortunate training accidents while attempting to knee-walk on the StairMaster.
There was some serious talk of installing a giant escalator in 1949. But the good lord did not smile on that plan.
Another thing they never got around to: building an observation deck at the top.
There had been talk about four years ago that such a deck was going to installed by 2013.
That plan seems to have been quietly shelved.
Such a deck would offered a tremendous (did you actually use the word tremendous? Chimples) view onto the millionaires' backyards below and you might even have some some beaver at Beaver Lake from that amazing vantage point. I'll text the Cardinal to see if there's been any progress on that.
Meanwhile I'm attaching this second photo as a public service announcement about message T-shirts.They really have no place in church.
T-shirts with wacky messages appear to be back in style as seen in these recent nightclub photos posted by Le Homard.
But I just want to reiterate that Presbyterian ministers don't like seeing them much, as I learned the hard way. I would imagine the same goes across the board for all religions. So try wearing something with more buttons and less letters if you're heading into some sort of religious thing.
