Some people might see this pandemic as an opportunity to take a break from their jobs, while some fear the uncertainty of their next paycheck. Others return to their jobs everyday in the same way as before. I classify myself with the last group -- I continue to wash dishes at a place called Dream Dinners.  Dream Dinners, a place that prepares meals for busy families, shifted to a takeout-only location during this crisis. Like many other restaurants who have shifted to takeout-orders only, Dream Dinners remains open, running, and surprisingly busy. Even though washing dishes is no elegant job,...

Wall-E is the story of a robot left alone on Earth for seven-hundred years while the entire human race escapes to space in order to avoid the rapidly deteriorating planet. During quarantine, Pixar’s Wall-E offers important messages about connection, loneliness, and unconditional love.  What blows me away about this movie is how much world-building and character development there is with almost no dialogue in the first half hour.

One of many traditions we share at Montrose is when we fistbump to share peace during Mass instead of shaking hands. The idea originally came from Father Dick, who wanted to make sure that people stayed healthy, especially when we gathered together each day in the chapel. But in recent weeks, the health risks of even going to Mass -- at school or in our hometowns -- have enormously increased with the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. Now that we have all settled into our Zoom classes over the past two weeks, we can discuss how Montrosians have felt about one of the most unique aspects of our...

If you are anything like me during this time of solidarity at home, you are often charged with babysitting. So, here are six tricks and tips to help keep Littles corona-free. (Because if they were to get the virus on your watch, you might be sent to Timbuktu!) *** Buy some minor-grade explosives: One of the ways the coronavirus spreads is through human interaction. Installing smallish bombs around the perimeter of your property can make sure that possibly infected humans can't be anywhere near Littles (at least in one piece)! But make sure to mark them clearly, or else the Littles might accidentally...
