It’s the Fourth Sunday of Lent, also known as Laetare Sunday. This is one of two days that the priest can wear rose-colored vestments, unless his parish doesn’t have them or because he thinks they look "sissy." (Seriously, I heard a priest say that one year; he was wearing a microphone when he said it, and the whole church heard him.) In honor of the occasion, I’m wearing a pink shirt. It’s kind of faded to white…
It’s Beatles Week over at Max’s Powerpop blog, and yours truly wrote today’s post. The topic is one of my favorite singles that’s managed to fall through the cracks over the years.
