Well he definitely noticed my necklace. I saw him eyeing it back in the sacristy before Mass.
I went out and announced the opening hymn then went to the back of church for the processional. He was standing off in the corner and motioned for me to come to him.
He whispers,,, "Sometime you need to sit down and explain the reason why the Republican symbol is an elephant and the Democrat symbol is a donkey".
Quick as a flash, I whispered back: "That's so easy. The elephant is a symbol of strength and courage,, something strong enough to protect the weak and frightened,,, and the Donkey is a (mouthing the words but not uttering them in church) Jack A$$"
Then I winked at him,,, he's 37 and young enough to be my son if I'd started my family early,, and started down the isle with the Bible held high.
At the Sign of Peace, as he approached me he said, "Please remind me to never ask you a question unless I REALLY want to hear the answer". I grinned and wished him Peace in his Heart.
Score: Granny 2 - Lib Priest 0.
(altho I really think I deserve more than 2 points being as I had to hold my own with him in front of church 6 wks ago and now again,, But I play fair. There were only 2 confrontations, I won them both, so I will settle for 2 points.)
He walked right into that one, didn't he? ... *grinning from ear to ear*
WHOP~!!!!!!!!!!
BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!
IG WINS!!!
(I can just picture you mouthing Jack A$$ LOL).

ROTFLMPO !!!
Wow - remind me never to get into a battle of quick wits with you! That was a zinger. Though you may have only earned two points for these encounters, it was the equivalent of winning two World Series, not two points.
