Urizen's busted and he's still getting paid. Nice.

Goooooood morning FAWLtYies! FHDM in the hizzouse! Twas an interesting weekend with going to perhaps the most remote bbq joint in manhattan (Dinosaur bbq, allllllll the way up in the outskirts of Harlem, any further and it would have been in the Bronx or underwater), seeing x-men first class (which was okay, didn't haterate on it nearly as much as I thought I would) and watched the end of the Tudors (Johnathan rhys Davies for Monarch!). Also finally updated my livejournal /dreamwidth, and the paladin for Freehold he saga of wune is next(eventually)!

Morning all.
The ongoing saga of my feline foe continues...
I have to wear a dress uniform on mondays. We call them our dress blues in the Air Force. I have a very shinny set of black shoes that I have to wear with it. Sometime during the night Mildred tore out the insoles.
I am literally walking on nails until the BX opens.

MTV sucks. The MTV Movie Awards are farcical and suck even more.
But, they give us the newest Fright Night Trailer with more on David Tennant as Peter Vincent. And for that, I can forgive them (this once).

Ah...the dog collar. I'm not sure I can beat Wikipedia on this one. Like most clerical garb, the stiff collar is an older style of clothing that has been kept and incorporated into liturgical and/or clerical clothing as societal styles moved on. While older pieces, such as the palladium, have been invested with symbolic meaning, I have never heard anyone attribute any to the collar. Like the clerical shirt (or vest) and cassock with which it is worn, it is as more a signifier than a symbol. (Attn: I'm a priest.) The purpose for wearing it is to identify one as a priest in public, so that one is available to people in any setting, whether they have a relationship with a priest or parish or not.
Outside of Roman (and Eastern) circles, the collar (along with other garb) was for sometime a good indicator of how high church a cleric you were looking at, especially in Anglican/Episcopal circles (and perhaps also with Lutheran pastors). At one time, liberal and evangelical clergy wouldn't have been got dead in one. Now its use is more widespread (denominationally, if not numerically) and is often worn for convenience sake more than for reasons of a traditional vision of 24/7 ministry (e.g., "The hospital won't give me any trouble if I wear my collar.") Its popularity in the Anglican Communion is especially due to the influence of the Oxford Movement (early/mid 19th C). Due to the prestige of Anglicanism, the practice spread to other groups (who don't have priests but other kinds of ministers) who either wanted to look more churchy or benefit from its practical side. There is a also a version that has two bands hanging down from the collar. This is often called "preaching bands."

Ahh the Dog Collar, you had to go there ;) then again so did Wikipedia, and so does our Bishop. Does any group even use the preaching bands anymore?
