WHAT DO I REMEMBER ABOUT THE YEAR 2018?

WHAT DO I REMEMBER ABOUT THE YEAR 2018?
CONFESSION! I HAVE BEEN TAKING A MEMORY PILL FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS. IT IS CALLED "PREVAGEN" WHEN I DO FORGET I BLAME IT ON "PREVAGEN". IT IS ONLY A POWER OF SUGGESTION PILL. AND IT DOES COST MORE THAN A DOLLAR A DAY. MY EXCUSE IS THAT I PREPARE MY OWN INCOME TAX &  DO LIVE INDEPENDENTLY WITH CAR AND OUTSIDE ACTIVITIES.

MY CAR BROKE DOWN A FEW  SATURDAYS AGO. ON THE WAY HOME FROM A VISIT TO BOB ESCOBAR WHO IS RECOVERING FROM A BLOOD CLOT IN THE HEAD, ETC. AND IS IN REHAB. ANOTHER NEW ENGINE OF $3700 IN A 2000 CAMARY WAS NOT WORTH IT.
I NOW USE A CANE AND A WALKER. WHAT GOT ME MOST EXCITED THIS PAST WEEK. IMAGINE, WALKING DISTANCE FROM THIS PLACE TO ST. POLYCARP CATHOLIC CHURCH IS ONLY ONE/HALF MILE. I TOOK THE WALKER AND GOT THERE IN 16-18 MINUTES. (4 REST PERIODS), AND TO THE OTHER CORNER, CVS PHARMACY AT 18-20 MINUTES. GREAT EXERCISE!

I WILL ADJUST TO INDEPENDENT LIVING WITHOUT A CAR. MY NEW SCAN INSURANCE SAID THEY WILL PROVIDE ME WITH 12 VISITS TO THE DOCTOR. ON MONDAY, I HOPE TO SIGN UP WITH "ACCESS" ORANGE COUNTY BUS PROGRAM. IT WILL BE ABOUT $4.00 PER TRIP.
WILL GET TO MONTHLY "DOMINICAN LAITY PRAYER MEETING" ON  LAST MONTHLY MONDAY EVENING FROM ABOUT 6:15 P.M. TO 8:15 P.M. LOCATION AT ST. MARY'S CATHOLIC CHURCH IN FULLERTON. AND ALSO TO THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS MEETINGS ON THE THIRD WEDNESDAY OF THE MONTH AT ST. IRENEAUS CHURCH IN CYPRESS, AND COUPLE GET-TOGETHER DINNER AND CARDS. GOING ONE DAY WILL TIRE ME OUT. THE NEXT DAY, I DO TAKE FREQUENT NAPS. MORE THAN NORMAL PEOPLE DO. ALSO, LUCKILY, I HAVE DAILY ACCESS TO THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, A BREADTH OF FRESH AIR.

WE HAVE A CLINIC WHERE I LIVE, INDEPENDENTLY AT ROWNTREE GARDENS IN STANTON, CA.  THEY WAKE ME UP EARLY AND DO THE TEST. DONE BY OUTSIDE LAB. IT WAS OK.
I HAVE JUST BEEN INTERRUPTED (2:40 P.M.) BY THE JOURNEY EVANGELICAL CHURCH STROLLING CAROLERS. THEY SANG CHRISTMAS SONGS OUTSIDE MY DOOR AND DOWN THE LONG HALLWAY.
OK. I COULDN'T WAIT UNTIL CHRISTMAS EVE TO OPEN MY GIFT FROM THEM. IT WAS A BLUEISH BLANKET TO COVER THE BED ON ANY COLD WINTER NIGHT WITH MY DOOR OPEN.

THE DAILY ROUTINE IS ABOUT THE SAME. UP AT 5:20 A.M. - EXERCISE AND THEN THE STRONG INFLUENCE OF ST. PIO,  BEST OF THE BIBLE BOOK, AND POPE BENEDICT'S BOOK - CO-WORKERS OF THE TRUTH.  PICK UP THE ORANGE COUNTY NEWSPAPER AT 6:15 P.M. AND BREAKFAST AT 6:30AM, LUNCH AT 11 AM, AND SUPPER AT 4:15 P.M. WE HAVE WAITERS AND WAITRESSES.

I BELIEVE I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL DURING THE MONTH OF JANUARY. (NO TV OR NEWSPAPERS)  THE EXCELLENT DOCTOR HAD DONE "LAPAROSCOPIC ASSISTED RIGHT COLOSTOMY, JAN. 2ND. THEY REMOVED THE CANCER JUST IN TIME. TO DOUBLE CHECK, MAY HAVE ANOTHER COLONOSCOPY IN JAN. 2019. DURING JANUARY, I READ THE BOOK "PADRE PIO AND - THE TRUE STORY" AND "THE POLITICAL POPE." HOPE TO COMPLETE THE BOOK REPORTS ON THEM BY NEXT YEAR ON MY BLOG.FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE, I SIGNED UP YESTERDAY WITH ALL NEW JITTERBUG SMART 2 PHONE.  I COULD NOT HANDLE THE CELL PHONE "VIRGIN MOBILE." MY AOL HAS BEEN A DISASTER.  WILL ATTEND CLASSES HERE AT ROWNTREE ON THE EYE PAD, SOMETHING COMPLETELY NEW TO ME.

THEY DO HAVE A LOT OF ACTIVITIES ON CAMPUS. WEEKLY BUS TRIPS TO ALL KINDS OF LOCATIONS. LAST WEEK WENT TO THE LA MIRADA THEATER TO SEE "THE YOUNG AMERICANS" AND EARLIER THIS YEAR FOR ALL DAY VISIT TO "THE QUEEN MARY." OH! TALK ABOUT  A QUEEN, I AM BLESSED WITH BEING A GREAT GRANDFATHER. HER NAME IS LORELEI, DAUGHTER OF CHASE AND LAUREN ROGERS.

THE BOTTOM LINE ON WHAT IS BEST ABOUT WHERE I LIVE IS TWO MINUTES AWAY FROM ALL THE MEALS (I CAN'T COOK) AND ONLY 29 STEPS AWAY FROM THE CLOTHES WASHING MACHINE. PLUS THEY HAVE PROGRAMS THAT KEEP YOU ALIVE LONGER THAN NORMAL. CHECK IT OUT!
                   MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!

P.S. On Mon.,Dec. 17, 2018, I mailed letters # 3 & 4, to Pope Francis and Bishop Kevin Vann. Dec. 18th, I'll be 88.

IN PURSUIT OF THE TRUTH - HTTP://WWW.CINOPSBEGONEBLOGSPOT.COM - WED. DEC. 5/18

HERE ARE THE FINAL EXCERPTS FROM A BLOCKBUSTER ARTICLE IN THE "NATIONAL CATHOLIC REGISTER" NOV. 25 TO DEC. 8, 2018 - BY MONSIGNOR CHARLES POPE, "COLLECTIVE COWARDS MUST BE TRANSFORMED INTO CLEAR LOVING WITNESSES."

    "Catholic colleges openly teach dissent without any correction from the bishops, and there is a tolerance of a moral life among their students that would shock even the most pagan of the ancient Greeks and Romans.

    "Liturgical abuses have abounded and remained uncorrected for decades. In the seminaries and within the priesthood, homosexual predation by an apparent network of priests has gone on for years, along with cover-ups, denials and secret payouts.

    "The number of states initiating grand jury investigations is increasing daily.... Mass attendance has been declining for years, ... Scandals continue to arise. The Vatican Bank has been plagued by scandal for years...

    The Holy Father himself is surrounded by questionable figures who are at the very heart of the current crises.... In response to the crisis, from Rome there has been silence.... I also repent because I am a member of the very hierarchy and cadre of those in holy orders I describe.

    I have been a priest for nearly  30 years now, and this disorder has only increased on my watch. I can not exempt myself from all blame... It goes against my training and my nature my nature as a Catholic and a priest to recite this litany of disorder. I even admit to the fear of retribution for my words.

    I would like to mention again that while the big picture is bleak, there are many bishops who have spoken courageously and taught well during these dark days. May they be confirmed by the Lord and preserved in their ministry. I beg the bishops to hear a cry of the heart, not just from me, one of their priests, but from so many of the faithful who must live with the disorder within the Church that we who  are in holy orders have very obligation to correct. Our credibility is nearly nonexistent.  ...

    We clergy must amend our lives by recommitting to the Lord' doctrinal and moral teaching; we must strive to live it ourselves and be serious about reproving the dissenters and serial violators and removing them from our ranks. We must honestly call out sin and refer to it by its proper name. We must speak no less plainly than did out Lord and his apostles, who used words like sodomy, fornication, adultery, greed, hatred, divorce and heresy.

    Resorting to vague terms like wounded, clericalism and abuse of power only diminishes our credibility. People can see right through such obfuscation. It is not my place, nor is it my goal, to set forth an agenda for the bishops. However, we who share in the sacrament of holy orders are currently president over a landscape of terrible disorder and have no one to blame but ourselves.

    Even if we have not personally committed moral offenses, to many of us have remained fearfully silent and /or indecisive. We have not courageously witnessed to the truth. The heroic example of the martyrs is almost unknown to us. We must change.`

    Indeed, we must seek a remarkable wherein our collective cowardice is converted, as if by miracle, into a clear, loving witness that is willing to endure the scorn of the world to reassert the truth of the Gospel. May our love for God's be so great that we refuse to lie to them or water down the truth that alone can set each one of us free.   

    May we who share in the exalted sacrament of holy orders, by God's grace, restore order to the Lord's Church, an order that both he and his good people deserve and require, and may God's good people pray and fast for our bishops."

ABOUT ME

NO MORE CINOPS
The most rewarding part-time business I had during the 1980's in Long Beach was promoting small businesses and consumers (aka teaching the poor how to fish). It was a successful conservative project. As a member of the Long Beach Area Chamber of Commerce, the Weekly Consumer Buyline/Long Beach Buyline, did it all. It saved my family of six at least $50 to $100 monthly. It was a weekly flyer of best food and nonfood buys. At one time we had almost 100 advertisers and a distribution by foot of 1000 flyers. It was posted in about 25 or more laundromats. Distribution areas were mainly below Anaheim Street and in Belmont Shore. I was blessed with some interesting travel. Stationed for at least 3 years as a regular US Army soldier in Metz, France, 1959-1961 (Berlin Crisis extension). Later took pilgrimages to Medjegore, Lourdes, Fatima and a trip to the Holy Land. For the rest of the story, check out George H. Kubeck, authors this website: cinops be gone.

LETTER # 4 TO HIS HOLINESS POPE FRANCIS AND BISHOP KEVIN VANN # 1 OF 2

LETTER # 4 TO HIS HOLINESS POPE FRANCIS AND BISHOP KEVIN VANN # 1 of 2
PREFACE:
    There are two sentences from the article that I will post which are MOST disturbing to me. Firstly, "At the time of this writing, there has has not been one bishop, archbishop or cardinal in either the Holy See or the United States who has come forward on his own to repent publicly of his sins of  omissions or commission with regard to Archbishop McCarrick's series of promotions over decades," stated Bishop McKnight. +++ Secondly, "History proves that we bishops are not capable of policing ourselves adequately on the issue of clergy sexual abuse."
  
  OUR BISHOPS WERE ALWAYS HELD ON THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF RESPECT; ALMOST, AT TIMES, LIKE SAINTS. THERE ARE CHURCH AND CIVIL LAWS. HANDLE PRIEST ABUSE IMMEDIATELY WITHIN THAT DIOCESE, WITHOUT ANY COVER-UP.   ALMOST 3 BILLION DOLLARS WAS SPENT IN PAST DECADES IN AMERICA ALONE. MONEY DONATED BY CATHOLIC RESIDENTS AND EARLY IMMIGRANTS YEARS AGO.

  HERE ARE THE  EXCERPTS FROM:  +++  LIFESITE: NEWS - CATHOLIC CHURCH, HOMOSEXUALITY,
Tues. Nov. 20, 2018 - "Bishop urges other bishops to be honest about McCarrick cover-up: "Be men, not cowards" Jefferson City, Missouri:

"Bishop Shawn McKnight was "very disappointed" at the Holy See's intervention last week prohibiting the U.S. bishops from taking action on measures to address sexual abuse.
"My frustration, shared with many other people, is this, "Bishop McKnight of the Diocese of Jefferson City explained. "We have known about the scandal of Archbishop McCarrick since the end of June, and our Church must take immediate, decisive and substantive action in light of the deep wound the scandal has caused....

HERE ARE EXCERPTS FROM A BLOCKBUSTER ARTICLE IN THE "NATIONAL CATHOLIC REGISTER" NOVEMBER 25 TO DECEMBER 8, 2018 - By Monsignor Charles Pope, "Collective Cowards Must Be Transformed Into Clear Loving Witness"

" In light of the annual fall general assembly of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) Nov. 12-14 in Baltimore, we do well to ponder a critical work of bishops (along with priests and deacons) - that of governance.... So the primary meaning of holy orders does not pertain simply to keeping things in good order, but to ranks or distinctions within a larger group. However, key to the ancient Latin term was the idea of governance. Hence while we sometimes use it in its wider sense (e.g., "Order of Catechumens"), the term is usually restricted in the more formal sense to the ordained clergy. The Catechism states:
   
    "Integration into one of these bodies in the Church was accomplished by a rite called ordinatio, a liturgical act which was a consecration, a blessing or a sacrament .... for it confers the gift of the Holy Spirit that permits the exercise of a 'sacred power'.... Therefore, a bishop is one designated to oversee a local area or diocese. Of a bishop, St. Paul writes that he must,
    
"be able to encourage with sound doctrine and to convict those contradicting it. For there are also many insubordinate, empty  talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision. It is necessary to silence them, as they overthrow whole households, teaching things that they ought not for the sake of base gain" (Titus 1:9-11)                                    
    Hence, at the heart of the sacrament of holy orders is keeping of order through the munus regendi (the office of governance), indeed, ... The overall atmosphere, however, is one of unholy disorder brought about by the very ones ordained to bring holy order:
   
 The faith is openly betrayed and denied by renegade bishops - even whole conferences of bishops - the heads of religious orders, Synods sow confusion and division rather than clarity or unity..
    
Teaching is on holiday, silence in the face of error is rampant, and listening without limit is called "magisterial." .... There are wandering "celebrity priests" who promote the "LBGT" agenda without any reference to repentance or chastity. Policies that deny the Lord's clear words on divorce/remarriage and ignore St. Paul's admonition about Holy Communion are proposed and adopted. Legitimate questions and requests for needed clarifications are met with silences." ...    George H. Kubeck
