Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

Thank you, Our Father, for this tree proud and wooden
And the brandy-blue flame atop this plum puddin'
Thank you for the birth in that most humble stable
And assure me that girth in this season's a fable

Hail Merry

Is It Enough To Drive You To Drink?

The power of prayer is all it takes to relax with a drink at a newly opened Croatian cafe. Customers at the Jedro coffee shop in Zagreb are asked to say a certain number of prayers in return for their drinks. The most expensive beverage is a Coca-Cola which costs five Hail Marys. A cappuccino costs four Our Fathers. The shop, which does not serve any alcohol, is run and financed by local parish authorities.
