Greetings, parish orphans, and retrogrades. Happy Friday.

In the ongoing saga of Shiala Buff's Latin Mass conversion to the Roman Catholic faith,

another funny development occurred about a day and a half ago, and that is Cardinal Roche of England,

who's in charge of the liturgy under Pope Francis, has scratched his head

and admitted it publicly. I don't understand, if I can paraphrase, why Shia LaGyla Buf loves this Latin

Mass thing so much. Let's talk, which is hilarious. So it's an ongoing saga. It's kind of corny to continue talking about it,

but we lovers of the Latin Mass can't not. That's what we're going to be talking about on

today's episode of Rules for Retrogrades shortly after these messages. It's the second day of

the month, September the 2nd, 20 days from the day in the Lord

of the Rings universe that Frodo and Sam set off on the journey of the ring. We always have a

September 22nd party. It's also the first day of fall. And that means that we, you know, in the

places of the world that aren't completely,

completely hot, we're celebrating fall basically all September long. Do so now at the

beginning of a September month in two ways. Firstly, join me as a patron. I know that sounds

a little bit strange, but patrons of mine on Timothy J. Gordon's

Patreon page get enhanced benefits in this year 2022 compared to all the other years I've ever done this.

All of them are now getting to join free. All levels, even the lowest $5 patron, can join in weekly book clubs

that we're doing often throughout the year. We just wrapped up last Friday, a Father Elijah

book club. Starting in October, the four Thursdays of October, we're going to do a viewing party

of Stranger Things first season. We're going to be talking about the not so late in Aristotelianism therein.

But to do that, you have to be a patron.

Join today on Timothy J. Gordon, patreon.com.
