Will the video camera survive? It looks like we will need to get a new video camera. The one we currently have has suffered a number of harsh blows by pro-homosexual advocates. The viewing screen no longer works. If you remember, it was hit by a woman who assaulted Mr. Michael Shibler … Read more
Forecast for the day: rain. As you can imagine, rain can ruin a demonstration, not because we fear getting a little wet, but because our cardboard signs would fall apart. Confiding that the Blessed Mother would somehow intercede for us and hold off the rain, we drove to the Green Acres Mall … Read more
