Why is her blog anonymous? What is she hiding? Would we find it Ironic that she is a Catholic if we knew her?<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\"><a href=\"http:\/\/happycatholic.blogspot.com\/\">Happy Catholic<\/a> is another great blog and Julie D. provides both smiles and great insights. But I have it on good authority that she once didn&#8217;t say grace before a meal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">Paul Nichols at the <a href=\"http:\/\/catholiccartoonblog.blogspot.com\/index.html\">Catholic Cartoon Blog<\/a> is one funny guy, but did you know he was born with original sin? <\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">Gerald at <a href=\"http:\/\/closedcafeteria.blogspot.com\/\">The Cafeteria is Closed<\/a> provides great coverage of the Church and has concluded with many a humorous line. But did you know that he named his blog after something Maureen Dowd wrote in a column? Can you truly trust someone who is such a devotee of Maureen Dowd that he would take his blog name from something she has written?<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\"><a href=\"http:\/\/oxfiles.blogspot.com\/\">The Ox Files<\/a> is a superb parody blog especially on liturgical matters, but opposition research has found that sometimes The Dumb Ox is distracted in prayer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">Kathy Shaidle at <a href=\"http:\/\/relapsedcatholic.com\/\">Relapsed Catholic<\/a> has a wit sharper than a Ginzu knife and headlines that regularly invoke laughter, but did you realize that she regularly writes more about Islam than Christianity? Can you really trust a blog named Relapsed Catholic?<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">Fr. Erik Richtsteig at <a href=\"http:\/\/orthometer.blogspot.com\/\">Orthometer<\/a> is one funny priest, but shouldn&#8217;t he be praying, visiting the sick, or something instead of making us laugh so regularly?<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\"><a href=\"http:\/\/holywhapping.blogspot.com\/\">The Shrine of the Holy Whapping<\/a> is surely the funniest group blog, but did you know that their members only put in a buck or some loose change when the collection basket comes around?<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">If you vote for the Curt Jester I promise you a 20 percent increase in guffaws and a rubber chicken in every pot.<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">I&#8217;m the Curt Jester and I approve this message.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year when you vote in the Funniest Catholic Blog category of the Catholic Blog Awards do you know who you are voting for?
