Decided I needed a little High Canadian Content, so I fired up a bit of the ol' Murdoch Mysteries. Straight into a priest murder in a convent. A little light heresy as a nightcap.

Really impressive how Keith Olbermann injected himself into this as prominently as possible. I was not aware he was anything worse than a blowhard, now I would like every person in journalism I have heard about for the last 24 hours, plus Chris Cilizza, to join a convent and never be heard of again.

Today's the feast of St Margaret of Scotland, 11th Century Scottish Queen. She stands with St Andrew in a detail of glass by Harry Clarke, made in 1923 for Dowanhill Convent, Glasgow. It's now in Kelvingrove Art Gallery in the city.

Not a ghost, but I was once in an old convent reading a plaque about a nun who lived there in the 19th century, & I was struck by the detail that, while suffering from a severe fever, she believed she had 2 bodies, & that if one died the other would survive. Rather too Matrixy for my peace-of-mind..
do you believe in ghosts or are you like me, a person who finds themself saying all the time “I absolutely don’t believe in ghosts, but this place has ghosts.”

"The Patronato had the power to detain any non-conforming woman under 25.
They slept 20 to a room, with a nun at one end, and the door locked. The daily routine: prayers, Mass, cleaning the convent, and hours in a workshop making clothes for local retailers."
Insulin-induced coma as "treatment".

Important note on GDT’s Frankenstein:
The relationship between Elizabeth & the creature is not sexual. It is possibly romantic, but it is most importantly kindred spirits. She sees herself reflected in his purity, innocence, pain, isolation. Her being very recent convent girl is very relevant.

FRIEND OF THE FAMILY (to inconsolable young widow who tells of going to bury herself in a convent.): But don’t you think, my dear, it is very foolish for a pretty woman like yourself to think of abandoning the world at the age of thirty?
YOUNG WIDOW: Twenty-nine!

Well, Dantes ends up w/ Haydée & Mercedes ends up in a convent which strikes me as a little unbalanced.
Although it should be noted that Haydée insists that he is her reward, not she his.
