>When Annie was ~8 she and her friends would watch Mother <Angelica?> and
>laugh.  I asked her once and she said, "She's like a crabby old lady and
>does not know how to dress."  Ahhh, Annie...that's my gril!

When Albert would turn her on back in Brooklyn when my mother was alive, mom 
would say, "She doesn’t know Scripture. It says . . . ."

Mom was the best when it came to knowing Scripture -- a militant agnostic from 
childhood, she learned every chapter and verse so as to use it as a weapon 
against her conservative Dutch Reform cousins <g>.

Of course it helped Suzanne from time to time "Where in the Bible does it say 
"...." and mom would reply things like "Look in Numbers 4" or something equally 
obscure <g>.

Cheers,
Jim
