Is this what the bishop of the Southern Cone (and I suppose a few others) wakes up to in the morning, an upside-down mitre?
Many apologies to any cat or dog that has had to endure an Elizabethan collar and to their people who are torn between laughing and crying at seeing their poor animal try to escape (my cats back up thinking they can worm their way out of it in reverse) being in a lampshare out of which they can't see anything.
Frankly, between the news of the Church of Wales' clergy choking on the possibility of women bishops and the recent thread of comments chez Fr Jake Stops the World, my heart is so dispirited and grumpy that a photo from I Can Haz Cheezburger is about all I can muster.
No links because I think the crowd (?) that reads this blog already has them.

I did chortle as one does- with love and sympathy for the upside-down mitre.
I am sorry you are in the valley this morning. BooBoo the cat and I send our good thoughts and prayers your way. Since he is looking at me hatefully after I gave him a dose of his liquid antibiotic, maybe his prayers will just come later.
Also, I did not inlcude your name in a list of clergy people, great clergy who read my blog and I am going to correct that.
Although our churches can make us sad with their structure and their small mindedness when we look up into their hierarchies, may we look across and down and find the who and what we need in the breaking of the bread.
Peace to you Lee.
Reading the HoB/D list and Father Jake can get depressing. There are some threads which are best left alone after the initial look.
There are some people who are best ignored as they seem to have programmed responses to any situation which are repeated over and over ad nauseum with no readily apparent thought behind the post.
Meanwhile I'm about to post a couple of photos in sympathy with you and JP (DaYouthGuy). snicker.
Thank-you for your welcome. I'm sorry you're having a bad day. If I could, I'd send my little cat your way, she plays fetch with catnip mousies... much longer than you want to throw them :)
Thank you one and all. I am not as bad off as what I wrote — I just knew that if I were to comment on either topic, I would write something I would later regret.
And welcome to CBL!
Pseudo — thanks for the photos but smile your snow piles are miniscule.
Maybe tomorrow I will take a photo that will show just how UGLY things are (though we're supposed to get snow/rain tomorrow).
Thanks for the (rueful) smile.
