Run In With Mr. Edwards

Hey, I was a post-Vatican II Catholic boy. No latin for me...

However, I CAN recite the entire Catholic Mass (circa 1964) verbatim, if
you'd like...

Hey, there are still a bunch of us attending Mass every Sunday using the
1963 Tridentine Missal. Everything in latin but the homily, lots of
incense, the priest with his back to the congregation, having to kneel to
receive communion, the whole nine yards. And the music is at least 100
times better, since the latin mass had nearly 2,000 years to filter out all
the bad compositions and stuck only with the stuff that was really, really
good.

Actually, for full disclosure, I haven't done the 1963 mass since I got to
Pittsburgh in 1999. We moved into the same neighborhood as the Cathedral,
and I just couldn't resist singing there, even if they do use the weak
(IMHO) Vatican II format to perform the liturgy.
