“Laissez les bons temps rouler"--"Let the good times roll!" And I bet the good times are rolling in New Orleans, where my old friend Terri Antholzner lives and sells flowers on Jackson Square by St. Louis Cathedral and the Cafe du Monde. I bet the good times are rolling in Rio de Janeiro's Carneval, in Munich's Fasching, and in the pre-lenten celebrations in Venice. We Catholics can be pagan indeed in the face of Lent's deprivations, fasts, and abstinences! Carpe Diem, Let the Good Times Roll, Laissez Les Bons Temps Roulez!
These celebrations are the lagniappe of our lives!
