Bad Vestments

This really has nothing to do with anything, but I thought I'd throw this out.

One of the blogs I visit when I need a good laugh is called Bad Vestments, which is committed to "subjecting particularly awful Christian liturgical vestments to the ridicule they so richly deserve." Most of the targets of ridicule seems to be Episcopalian (in fact, I'd guess around 90%), but, believe it or not, there is one Orthodox priest in there. See if you can find him...

A bit of levity before we get serious again...
