Legenda Fratrum, V
Brother M, who was making a name for himself as a writer and speaker in the area of social justice, was visiting a monastery in New York. After being introduced to one of the younger brothers of the cloister, the young brother asked Brother M what he did in the Order.
Brother M: I live the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Young brother: Well, la-di-fucking-da. So do I.
Brother M: I live the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Young brother: Well, la-di-fucking-da. So do I.

Absolutely brilliant
Boy am I proud that I made you start blogging.
Thanks, Heather. I wish I could take credit for the retort, but at least I had the foresight to chronicle this important moment in the Order's history.
Do I detect snarkiness, Anne? Or are you being uncharacteristic?
If you weren't a celibate monk I'd give you a HUGE snog for that! And demand that you come wipe the coffee off my monitor that just erupted through my nostrils in what can only be described as slightly less than ladylike fashion.
If you didn't have coffee coming out of your nose, I'd take you up on that offer... on my day off.
*blows nose hastily*
*puckers up*
