Episcopalian bishop gets “married” in San Francisco Episcopal church.
A story and picture like this really makes it difficult to try to do parody. How can you compete with something like this?

Two old chickens enter a new relationship?
“Dear, did you have to wear the vinyl bowtie? The glare plays hell with my cataracts.”
You need more quotes in the headline. It should read:
“Episcopalian” “bishop” gets “married” in San Francisco “Episcopal” “church.”
Today’s Headlines in Caption Form:
“Two blind guys who are the victims of a vicious joke!”
“Hit and run drivers, after untimely collision with rose bush, are just glad to be alive.”
“All male Shakespeare troup getting last rites before the audience kills them. Unaccountably they are glad to go.”
“Two of the ugliest lezzies you’ve ever seen getting “hitched” in San Francisco.”
“Blind Episcopalian minister marries the gardners instead of the bride and groom. The gardners, who don’t speak english, are amused by the awful clothing of the minister.”
“Wow, what an ugly woman, but the necklace is nice.”
Is that what miters look like in the Episcopal church nowadays?
Soviet studio-manipulators retouched the photo to show Leon Trotsky concluding the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution with Harry Truman (in his Masonic robes).
At least this wasn’t a picture of when the groom was asked to kiss the bride…
“Did you bring the rings?”
“No, I thought you did.”
“Wait a minute, who’s the husband again?”
I cant tell which is the bride or groom?
As Bishop, cant The HE/she want-a-be performthe ceramony (or what ever you call it) on themselves?

A friend came up with this from his memory of old pop songs:
http://www.lyricsbox.com/cowsills-lyrics-i-fell-in-love-with-the-flower-girl-pnhcpnp.html
I saw her sitting in the rain
raindrops falling on her
she didn’t seem to care, she sat there and smiled at me!!
Then I knew
(I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew!)
she would make me happy
(happy, happy, she could make me very happy)
Flowers in her hair, Flowers everywhere
(chorus):
I love the flower girl…
oh I don’t know just why she simply caught my eye
I love the flower girl…
she seems so sweet at night
she kept a tune in my mind
(Audio available at Amazon: play album track one.)
Come to think of it, this already is a parody
Retired Episcopalian “bishop” “marries” “male” “partner” in SF “church”. Caption contest at The Curt Jester….
MPs compelled the prisoners into humiliating and degrading poses, and saved photos of the scenes.
RC…THAT was classic!
Although not a sacrament, it remains an external expression of an internal reality.
“… and for our honeymoon, I got you a Col. Sanders outfit!”
(I’m supressing lots of horrible elaborations on that theme. Please pray for my sick mind.)
…and as another twist, the two decided to get lei’d BEFORE the ceremony.
Good form, RC! hahaha..

Why can’t Episcopalians play chess?
Because they can’t tell the difference between a bishop and a queen!
A reading from the Book of Leviticus…
Ah, my little chickadee!
Ah, my little chickadee!
Guess this needs a couple conservative Anglican entries:
“His miter’s drying out. Go water the bishop.”
“Do you have that stole altered or pruned?”
By the way, the Cowsills lyrics I quoted above are a flawed transcription; look around elsewhere on the net for other possibly more accurate versions.
I can’t decide what I like better: The Curt Jester or the comment boxes! You guys are amazing–thanks for starting my day with a laugh!
Do you think this is the upcoming cover of Lei Witness maagazine Episcopalian style?
goodbye to all anglican values
after replacing the “Wedding March” with a rousing rendition of “I’m Henry the VIIIth I am.”
The new”couple” walks through the churchs’ Labyrinth only to find it ends in HELL
Mona,
“can’t tell the differencebetween a bishop and a queen”–that was hilarious. Made my day. Thanks
Mirror Mirror on the wall……
These two look like twins!!
Curt Jester’s Caption Contest
Curt Jester is having a caption contest with the goofiest looking picture I have ever seen. I did not comment because I have no caption. But what is up with the flower wreaths on their heads? And why are they…
I didn’t know you were auditioning for the new Philly Cream Cheese commercial too?
“It’s not nice to fool Mother Nature.”
-or-
(song:) “It’s raining men, hallelujah!”
“Doublemint commercial goes awry in San Francisco”
Finalists in the Julius Caesar look-alike pageant.
I think I see a speck in your eye. No, I see a speck in your eye. Wait, maybe yours looks more like a beam. No, more like a log.
I knew we shouldn’t have tried that new Miracle-Gro hair tonic.
Theosis gets my vote for Best Entry, Pun Class for his “Lei Witness” post.
I like RC’s atrocity photo post for Best Entry, Caption Class.
Christopher Johnson is my nominee for Best Entry, Quote Class, and for Best in Show . . .
Pete Vere’s extra-dry observation,
Although not a sacrament, it remains an external expression of an internal reality.
I gotta a present in my pocket for you.
Did you bring the viagra?
I’m glad you wore purple, everyone would be snickering if you were in white.
(set to a broadway musical tune) If they could just see me now; that old parish of mine…
Straight weddings are sooooo last year.

Amen.
I emailed this pic to my wife (she was on a on biz trip) and she sent it to several folks from our church (The ANGLICAN Church of The Good Shepherd – formerly Episcopal).
I can’t remember having laughed so hysterically for so long!!!
My submission for the caption is the first thing I thought about when viewing the picture. I came of age in the 60’s, so this is my frame of reference.
Just pick your favorite phrase from these song lyrics:
(Be Sure To Wear Some Flowers In Your Hair)
Written by: John Phillips
Artist: Scott McKenzie
From the 45RPM: San Francisco b/w What’s the Difference
Originally released: May 1967
Album:The Voice of Scott McKenzie- 1967
Notes: According to Scott McKenzie, John Phillips wrote ‘San Francisco’ in
twenty minutes. (John was present during the interview when Scott said
this.) He wrote it to promote the upcoming non-profit Monterey Pop Festival.
John Phillips co-produced and played guitar.
If you’re going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you�re going to San Francisco
You’re gonna meet some gentle people there
For those who come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hair
All across the nation,
Such a strange vibration
People in motion
There’s a whole generation,
With a new explanation
People in motion, people in motion
For those who come to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
(Thank You! Heart of San Francisco)

I don’t see why all the rest of y’all are making fun of this. After all, he’s not any less married than he is ordained.
Flora, meet Venus.
OOOOOOOOh, you said my white teeth would look splendid in purple??? I thought you said a white wreath!!
A new bishopric fashion trend perhaps?? San Francisco “bay” leaf stoles??

A young man who pined away in love for his own image in a pool of water and was transformed into the flower that bears his name.
Really is comical in a way, I have never laughed so hard in my life!!! After and during the “I do’s” did he/she (either or, I do not who is who with these two) break down and cry? I bet all the witness’ did – this is very hard on the eyes without breaking into tears!!!
