Become a Catholic Two-Percenter!

Blog post from CANTERBURY TALES BY TAYLOR MARSHALL challenging all Catholics to pray the Rosary. The post begins...

When I attended Texas A&M University there was a derogatory term that you wanted to avoid at all costs. No matter what, you didn't want anyone to call you a "two-percenter."
 
The reference "two-percenter" was an analogy to "2% milk," which is inferior to "whole milk."
 
Aggies (i.e. students at Texas A&M) were labeled "two-percenters" if they didn't have school spirit and didn't partake in the university's rich traditions. "Ah, you're being a two-percenter!" was enough to jumpstart an Aggie and get them to volunteer for something.
 
So here's a challenge for everyone on the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary: Try to become at least a two-percenter when it comes to the Holy Rosary!
