. . . And the Pursuit

WASHINGTON (CNS) —This year because All Saints Day, Nov. 1, falls on Saturday, the usual obligation of U.S. Latin-rite Catholics to attend Mass that day is abrogated, said the July newsletter of the bishops' Committee on Liturgy.

Ascension Thursday's Sunday.
Corpus Christi got the boot.

And this year, since it's Saturday,
All Saints' Day will be moot.

'Cause Saturday's by Sunday.
And Monday just won't scoot

And two days in a row for God...
That's yielding too much fruit. 

So if we play our cards right,
Let money trump all suits,

We'll end all militant Sundays
Obliging happy pursuits.
