Although the tag says Budapest this particular stork was tagged in my home town:

The stork nest is in practically next to my parents' home.

I saw Ghost again yesterday. All the videos on YouTube so far were shot with or by potatoes. WTF

Went to wedding yesterday-- Peruvian gal and a Kentucky boy. The Latina-Redneck thing is almost a trope in my wife's circle of friends. Anyway, more interesting was that the Catholic priest was married, and he went out of his way to mention his married life throughout the wedding. My guess he was a formal Episcopal priest that went Catholic.

Also I sat next to a recent Miss Peru at the reception.

I think if you're already married when you decide to seek ordination, you're allowed to stay married. :hmm:

edit: checked and I appear to be wrong, so yeah he must have switched denominations. :blush:

Unless if the priest is a Ukrainian Greek Catholic priest - they allow married priests.

I think there was even a EU2 event about the Ukrainian Catholic union.  It goes back to the treaty of Brest in 1596.  It's a weird fusion of orthodoxy, Catholicism, and Ukrainian.  It's the dominant religion in western Ukraine (L'viv), and of course because of the diaspora there are many Ukrainian Catholic churches in the West.

Oscars - Best actor and best actress awards both go to films set in London a long time ago and a very long time ago respectively. 

So a bit like many brexitiers fondness for bygone English eras, of the rose tinted variety.
