I could not let these pass by.
They came in as comments elsewhere a while ago, but clearly deserve a thread of their own
Time to fire up the blog again:
"I read with dismay the Tidings article about McWilliams House. I first saw the "scaffolding" on Christmas Eve. It used to be that (this) church was a good neighbor, looks like CANA is becoming a blight on the neighborhood. Perhaps they're trying to get an urban renewal grant, which they can then use to pay their lawyers to delay delay delay........."
and
"How precious. According to Wroblewski in CANA's latest court filings, they are letting the front deck on McWilliam's House fall down so that the homeless and vagrants won't sleep there. Sounds like that new NBC show, "Live from Tejon Street, its Sunday Morning"........"
After all of the secessionist hand-wringing over the ability of the Episcopalians to manage property (irrelevant, Dareleen, to the pending cases, by the way...even legally-illiterate-I can see that much in the padded volumes your group has filed so far, including your poorly conceived affidavit), now we have this. The condition of McWilliams House is a disGrace/CANA.
I can feel the embarrassment all the way over here and it must be EXCRUCIATING being over there, Jon.
I suppose this is what we could expect, since property management has NEVER been a strong point of the secessionist group (case in point: divestiture of the adjacent properties on Willamette Ave. to cover up other management shortcomings).
Two wrongs did not make a right in that case...just made them look even more foolish in light of the current circumstances.

Thank you for starting up the blog again! We need a place to keep these things in the forefront. It is great to have it back! Now we need to spread the word that it is up and running again. Great comments. So sad to see that beautiful, historic building falling apart.
Oh, but why should we worry about the front porch of McWilliams house? Don has those extraordinary bathrooms in the Great Hall.
Hey- Grace Concerns, glad to see you back. Let me think about things and I'll be back also. Don't stay away so long next time.
So Mr Wroblewski tells the court they're going to tear down McWilliams house and replace it anyway. I wonder what the historical preservationist people think about that. It would be in character, however, tearing down a building or a congregation, no difference, rebuilding everything to their liking. I'll stick with the preservationists on this one, wonder how I join up.
Heres an idea- Since CANA doesn't want the homeless on the desk, and since the court has said that Grace Episcopal can pay to have renovations done to the buildings that CANA is occupying, lets get the deck fixed. And since we are homeless, lets spend the summer lounging around and drinking gin on the deck. Don't worry, CANA, we wonlt spend the night
yet another stupid incendiary sermon posted on the CANA site today. For all their talk about preaching the gospel I wonder when they're going to get around to doing it. Fr Pahl's, on the other hand, certainly had some things to say about the gospel to the Episcopalians yesterday, and he did it without asking for more money. Simply amazing.
not only have I been threatened by the gay community here in Colorado Springs, they have actually followed through.
this is a quote from Don Armstrong on the Stand Firm website. Does anyone know what he's talking about?
