Hilarious site: Bad Vestments

Can you imagine someone panning liturgical vestments like a renegade fashion critic? I can't, but someone apparently can and is having a ball while at it.

Meanwhile, a nicely written heartwarmer: How I Became a Dad by Matthew Archbold http://www.ncregister.com/blog/matthew-archbold/how-i-became-a-dad

Quote:

"So here’s the thing that I don’t think any instruction manual tells you. (I actually don’t know if they do or not because I still haven’t read any) As a parent you’re not given any special knowledge. You don’t know anything so you worry about everything. It’s all about worry. I think worried parents are good parents.

"Parenting is a vocation to worry. So for nine months I had nothing to do until the baby was born but now I always have something to do. I worry. I hear crying from the bassinet so I pick up the baby. Why? Because I’m worried something’s wrong. I don’t hear anything from the bassinet? I’m worried so I pick the baby up to make sure nothing’s wrong. I drag myself out of bed because I worry that the baby will wake my wife who’s been looking tired. I worry about sending my kids to college so I work harder."


(Thanks, Stef, for the heads-up.)
