Big August Party/Solemnity - Rock/Mary MacKillop
Happy Birthday The Rock! 8th of August. The Rock's Birthday coincides with the feast day of Mary MacKillop. In the NRL, he is a Saints supporter. He lives in the type of country town that Mary MacKillop would have setup a school in if she had happened to go there, which she didn't. How weird is that?!! Go Eagles!

Thanks Damo for the kind thoughts and remembrances.I'll take the Mary comparison even if it a day out. The birthday gift was a movie-meal deal to see Harry...it was fantastic. I loved the books and thought the movies were great. Snape does sneering contempt sooo well. Saw some reasonable signs in the rugby but we don't want to kid ourselves with that story for the rest of the year-we need intense pressure from the kickoff, just as NZ do. I'm still on the Quade bandwagon. His problem is teammates who can't keep up with his quick thinking. God bless MM on Monday and the August party on Tuesday
Geeze, the August Party. Happy birthday, John, from all the Melbourne Roffs. Glad you enjoyed Harry - I hadn't read the last book and assuemed he was going to die - what a pleasant surprise! Relax about your brothers all turning up in disguise tomorrow - how did Jan pull that off?
Arent you born on the 9th dad?
8th ? 9th ? Tomatoes , tomatoes (how do you do that in writing ?). Thanks for the good wishes.It is in fact the 9th.
OK its the 9th, but someone wrote in my diary at Harry's wedding it was the 8th. I concede that this was an environment where the human error factor was probably high. The Rock shares his Birthday with Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein)Virgin and Martyr.Im struggling to draw any comparisons. Happy Birthday anyway the Rock!
Damian is a turkey.
