It turns out that the patron saint of roller skating, Lydwina of Schiedam, spent 40 years in agony after breaking a rib from an ice skating fall. It seems like tacking rollerskating onto her saintly patronage obligations, along with ice skating and prolonged illness, is both contrived and cruel.
In other news, it is still raining, and it will rain forever. I don't let it get me down, though. The only thing that could really get me down would be 40 years of a gangrenous broken rib. posted by Frenz | 9/15/2006 04:50:00 PM
