No f-ing way. That's my hometown. You didn't happen to go to school there, did you?

That's awesome. Went to Our Lady of the Lake for a few years before moving back to New York State.

Lol that was my church, I used to work in the rectory & as a sacristan when I was younger. I saw the inner workings & the financials of the church and that was when I stopped going. I didn't like how it was run like a business/how they brought in way more money than they actually needed. Made me wonder who was pocketing all the profits. I swear there was a story in the bible about that, where Jesus went and flipped over all the merchant tables because they were using the house of God to make money. Imagine learning about that in church/CCD and then realizing that the whole church is guilty of it

I still keep the cross that Father Mike blessed for me around my neck every day. Just in case I run into anything unnatural like the wet lady :P
