I didn't see any rainbow sashes at our cathedral today, at least not from the choir loft view.

Didn't see any sashayers at our 11:30 Mass either.

I imagine if there were any, they were hanging around downtown at the Cathedral. I don't know what if anything our new archbishop would do if any showed up . . . but I know what Monsignor would do if they dared to show up here . . . it would be Irish, and it wouldn't be pretty! He may be a grey-headed dreadnought, but he's built like Don Camillo and pretty intimidating both physically and mentally.

Forgot to include a pic of Don Camillo for those not familiar with Guareschi's books and the films starring Fernandel in the title role.

He's an Italian priest in a small Po Valley town, in fairly constant conflict with the Communist Mayor and various other local characters. (He was once rusticated by his Bishop for reinforcing a religious argument with a bench.)
