Download Ewens 5-28-10.  The author, Jim Ewens & I studied theology together in Toronto, '68-'72, a great guy, a good Jesuit, a member of the Wisconsin Province.  This gives a picture of what it is like to exit.

True?

 

"Most people vastly overestimate the extent to which more money would improve our lives.  The daily activities most associated with happiness, [studies show], are sex, socializing after work, and

having dinner with others.

According to one study, joining a group that meets just once a month  produces  the  same  happiness  gain as  doubling  your income.

According to another, being married produces a psychic gain equivalent to more than $100,000 a year."

    Special Announcement: We are moving

    After celebrating week after week for 10 years, PISD is asking us to move over to Sigler on Janwood.  Apparently it is quite expensive to A/C the large cafetorium at Vines.  Sigler will be more economical.  September 6 we begin our new adventure.  This is the next to last Sunday In San Vino.

    I made connection with a pair of eyes, and I thought, "This is incredible; these eyes are penetrating me." I went through the whole performance just relating to those eyes, giving the whole thing to those eyes…  When curtain call finally came, I looked in the direction of those eyes, and it was a seeing eye dog…  I couldn't get over it — the compassion and intensity and understanding in those eyes, and it was a dog.
