    Disregard; I see the webaddress, now that the picture is enlarged!  Pretty sweet website, too!

    Lemme see here: CathInfo readers are expected to believe claims made by an anonymous poster about Central Florida!?  How can anyone know whether he or she is not actually just an opinionated snowbird from New York or Michigan?

    [Posting-author now corrected.]
    Sanford is an independent town| city on its own merits, notably established as the principal river port for Central Florida, back in the decades when that was highly important because the prevailing gray-sand soil seriously impeded transportation.  By contrast, Orlando was just a reprovisioning & comfort stop for cattle-ranchers, reliant on goods transported there across the troublesome intervening soil, probably mostly from the Port of Sanford.

    [Expletives deleted!], Matthew!  Would you please make the "Post with my real member-id" check-box a sticky selection!?  It ought to be enough for a member drafting a posting to select it exactly once!  It should not be cleared when I click the "Preview" button (or whatever other member-action unintentionally cleared it).  As happened yet again today!  Grrr!

    The one that is a snowbird that even admits he’s only been to Sanford once is the poster quoted. He copies and pastes from the internet and thinks he knows Florida.

    The OP has lived in Florida for well over 50 years. By the way, the Sanford Chapel is maybe 1000 feet from Lake Monroe.

    ------------------------------------------------------

    Re-recycling in Sanford - In Sanford, the recycling is placed in open plastic bins. The Sanford Chapel would have to have more than one bin for the bottles quantity the neighbors are talking about. So anyone walking their dog by the Priory can see what is there.

    Anyhow, this thread is meant for the priests and they know the truth of their luxurious drinking parties. It is up to them to see the error of their ways and change. It matters little what anyone on CI wants to believe or not.

  • This one:

    The style of pipe is called a churchwarden. The one pictured is a Stanwell. Search "churchwarden" here: https://www.smokingpipes.com/search/main-search.cfm for a selection. But beware, evidently it will turn you into a liberal or (gasp!) and Anglican!

  • Dear Anonymous et al:
    I'm the author of the above blog post (which oddly enough is over seven years old!), currently attend St. Thomas More, and would be more than delighted to answer the accusations made supra.
    (Hint: The charges levelled against the priests (and by extension the culture of the community at large) are a puritanical overreaction at best; more likely, however, an intentionally dishonest representation altogether.)
    I'm compelled to join the conversation as searching this forum for my name or associations has caused me to question the propriety, honesty, and extremist views of some of the folks here.
    In Dno et Dna.
    I know who you are and my advice to you is that “People who live in glass houses should not throw stones” if you get my drift.

    Bring it. I take it you're labelling me a drunk and a party-goer as you've smeared the Priory priests?

    T-H-A-N-K-S!!!
    I like this style of pipe, because the bowl is far enough away from the eyes that you can read/write and smoke at the same time, without the one interfering with the other.

    Sweet selection here: https://www.smokingpipes.com/search/main-search.cfm

    Yep, that's the whole idea. BTW, did they design this damnable forum around the idea of lurking in the shadows and sniping anonymously at others? Why do I need to click a box NOT to hide my identity?

    So... for the record... I'm the guy who lives in a glass house and cavorts with the drunk, liberal priests in Sanford. So have at it!

    No, my warning you that “People who live in glass houses….” has nothing to do with you drinking and party-going. I do not know anything about your personal life. Anyone that wants to know that can read your website. I have never been one to harm the injured.
    The priests on the other hand are all men and they can take the advice I have given.

    Everyone on this entire site is anonymous, ha ha. 


     Actually, not necessarily.  Across time forum members often develop an acquaintanceship with others who post under a user name and we may know of one’s marital status, the number of children, where they live, what they do for a living, their diversions and hobbies, and so forth.  Though not common it is also not unusual for forum members to meet in real life or to have a lively correspondence outside of the forum.  In just my last post I disclosed where I did live and where I live now.  To flesh that out, I mentioned having knowledge of recycling systems in seven different municipalities … and those would be Pullman, Seattle, Pasco, Kennewick, and Richland in Washington; Moscow in Idaho; San Mateo in California.


    Quote
    If you want to believe that recycling actually happens, then go ahead.


    It has nothing to do with what I want to believe but rather with what I have actually observed and researched.  As I’ve included the names of several locations rather than an anonymous “our city” it would be easy enough for one to verify my information on their own.

    All I can say is that in our city, top 25 of population in the US, all of it was dumped in the same spot.  Maybe our "contamination" was too high, as you pointed out?  I don't know.  Just passing along the info. 


    Assuming the above was written by the same anonymous poster from reply #7 two different things are being said.  Reply #7 said:


    Quote
    … all garbage and "recycled" stuff goes to the same dump.


    This would meaning that no recycling occurs and everything, garbage and things which could be recycled, are all shipped to the landfill.  This may be altogether different than what is written in reply #26:


    Quote
    … all of it was dumped in the same spot.


    All of what?  Garbage AND recyclables or all recyclables all going to the same spot but not garbage?  Many communities practice single stream recycling (which tend to not accept glass, or glass has to be handled separately) and the co-mingled recycling then may go to an out of area automated facility for sorting.  That certainly does not mean that recycling isn’t happening as you imply.

    For just three examples, on any business day one can visit the Whitman County Solid Waste Facility near Pullman, WA, Basin Disposal in Pasco, WA or Moscow Recycling in Moscow, ID and observe recyclable material (glass, cardboard, mixed paper, newsprint, white office paper, clear plastic, colored plastic, plastic milk jugs, rechargeable batteries) being separated and baled  for shipment to a buyer while garbage is segregated and reloaded in containers for shipment to a regional landfill.

    It has nothing to do with what one want's to believe, but rather with what can be actually observed and verified.

    Though evidently you yourself are not man enough to step out of the shadows?
    I know not the "injury" of which you speak, though I am happy to admit my personal flaws. Certainly anything I have published on the Internet I am not concerned for the world to know. I do not consider myself to be especially "injured," whatever difficult blows Providence may have caused me to endure. I simply do not understand your rather sinister admonition.
    For the record, I would consider myself neither a drinker (in the sense you seem to take it, at least) nor a party-goer. Indeed I am rather reserved. Having said that, and having personal experience of the recreation of the Priory priests and their guests, I remain completely taken aback at your suggestion that their indulgence has been particularly excessive or unbecoming their station.
