He Wore Blue Velvet

Just to show that I am not on a complete downer this holiday season, see the attached post from Father Z, a Roman Catholic priest, whose blog is "What Does the Prayer Really Say?" Father Z is a traditionalist, which makes me happy, and this particular post concerns one of my pet peeves, the tendency of some churches to want to wear blue vestments during Advent even though no compelling reason or tradition exists for it. There's a picture of a stunningly hideous blue chasuble and a wonderful parody song set to the tune of O Come, O Come, Emmanuel."

Here's the link:
