The Opposite of Mass Confusion

It's no secret I love my iPhone, but there's an application I've been begging for someone to create, and then someone did. I've wanted a Catholic Mass Finder. And turns out there is one, the Catholic Mass Times Church Directory.

And it works well. I was staying in Burbank for Free Comic Book Day. I'm not normally in LA over a Sunday, so I don't know where the local churches are, let alone when they have Mass.

And I like the body language, Darkblade working his iPhone while holding a cup of coffee. Apparently, a futuristic iPhone that allows you to swipe while wearing gloves. Or maybe Darkblade has special electrostatic gloves. You never know with him.
