Pleasure to be here, but I feel like
Good Irish carpenter
- but wood always missing
he had an irrepressible desire to make things of wood
le confessed a number of times
but always fell again
Finally, he really promised to reform
Priest asked him:
Have you ever tried to make a Novena?
Instinctively he replied:
No, Father, but if you have the plans, I can get you the wood.
So it goes with those of us who try to gaze into the crystal ball.
When we miss, we threaten never to do it again.
