Speaking of Facebook…

So Katie Prejean put up on Facebook¹ an album from Charity Week (that’s this week).  I loved seeing pictures of Micah Teller in a toga reading the republic in jail, or Fr. Maguire being carried to jail, or Samantha Harvey dancing with various beautiful people.  BUT the one thing from this album that really brought it all back–the one thing that stuck out in my mind-brain, that strange conglomeration like a bowl of spagetti–brought back the real, the true, UD experience……without more ado, I give you these artsy photos of the bros on the mall riding their long-boards!

¹Speaking of Facebook, has anyone (James Mackenzie???!) seen The Social Network?  Any thoughts is it worth seeing?

US Bishops Hosting a Facebook Pope Contest

WASHINGTON, D.C., OCT. 6, 2010 (Zenit.org).- Facebook users who “like” the profile page of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops will get a chance to show off what they know about Benedict XVI and win a prize.

The USCCB is sponsoring “Pope Culture Week” on Facebook, starting next Monday, Oct. 11, and running through Friday, Oct. 15.

Each day, there will be a question about the life and teachings of the Pope. The first to provide the correct answer as a comment will receive a free copy of “Benedict XVI: Essays and Reflections on His Papacy.”

Mercy Sister Mary Ann Walsh, director of media relations for the USCCB and editor of the book, reflected: “We think this is a great opportunity to engage our Facebook fans while promoting literacy about the Pope by asking questions about his life.”
