Procrastination? What's that?

St. Expedite is the Saint of Anti-Procrastination. Crows in Roman times where thought to be agents of slowness or delay, cause they screamed "caw caw!" or "cras cras", "tomorrow" in Latin. St. Expedite is commonly depicted with his foot on a crow, holding a cross engraved with "HODIE", latin for "TODAY".
