“Am I not here, I, who am your Mother? Are
you not under my shadow and protection? Am I not the source of your joy? Are you not in the hollow of my mantle, in the crossing of my arms? Do you need anything more? Let nothing else worry you, disturb you.” -

From My Friend, Susan, of NC - 12/11/14:
“This Christmas, mend
a quarrel. Seek out a forgotten friend. Dismiss suspicion and replace it
with trust. Write a letter. Give a soft answer. Encourage youth.
Manifest your loyalty in word and deed. Keep a promise. Forgo a grudge.
Forgive an enemy. Apologize. Try to understand. Examine your demands on
others. Think first of someone else. Be kind. Be gentle. Laugh a little
more. Express your gratitude. Welcome a stranger. Gladden the heart of a
child. Take pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the earth. Speak your
love and then speak it again.”

Greetings, TYPHOON Conduit: To shock your subscribers and yourself, here is a recent photo of Joseph “Bucky” Madagan and ![]() ![]() Exposing my youthful activity results, the scarring on my head is from many skin cancer surgeries. Life Guarding for years at the Municipal swimming pool, and six visits to Cuba in the USMC did expose my skull to sunburn, with a large price to pay. Hoping all is well with you and your family. TYPHOON Regards, Joseph Madagan (1957, Florida) |

WOWZERS! Thank you, Major Madagan! ![]() As a result of the bronchitis attack I suffered during the wee hours of Christmas Eve of 2014 when I came so close to death, and which permanently threw my COPD into overdrive, I've not been able to stand for longer than five minutes at a time. Combined with the severe rheumatoid arthritis in both knees and hips, I'm rather a hot mess, so I'm always doubly happy for those who have kept their mobility. I'd like to think that I've thanked you many times for your sacrifice and service to our country, Adonis, but knowing me, I've probably only thought it, as though mental telepathy was a common gift we all share continuously, so if I've never done so, let me do so now.
Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Alma Redemptoris Mater |
Loving Mother of our Savior |
Ascribed to Hermannus Contractus, d.1054 |
|
Alma
Redemptoris Mater, quae pervia caeli Porta manes, et stella maris, succurre cadenti, Surgere qui curat, populo: tu quae genuisti, Natura mirante, tuum sanctum Genitorem Virgo prius ac posterius, Gabrielis ab ore Sumens illud Ave, peccatorum miserere. |
Mother of Him who thee made from nothing made. Sinking we strive and call to thee for aid: Oh, by what joy which Gabriel brought to thee, Thou Virgin first and last, let us thy mercy see. |
