Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 19, 2019

Perfect place.

But the Confession booth is not the place.

I was expecting lederhosen.

He went a little cuckoo.

Seems to me they should all wear that hat; truth in advertising?

Sorry for being nerdy, but Cookoo clock are from blackforest, and that is far away from bavaria, and a different tradition and culture.

Since when is it the Bavarians who are famous for cuckoo-clocks? It’s always been Bavarians for beer, the Swiss for cuckoo-clocks.

The cuckoo clock was developped in the Black Forest area in the state of Baden-Württemberg in Germany. The Swiss much later developped the “Chalet” style.

The cuckoo clock discussion is interesting, but there’s an ecclesiastical technicality worth pointing out as well. You know, just to be pedantic. These guys are dress as bishops, not priests, so it’s unlikely they would address each other as “Father.”

Well, you HAVE to be a little Cuckoo to trust THESE guys…

Chuckoo chuckoo, the time is NOW, to put Father Bob on a leave of absence…..

He’s cuckoo for Coco puffs.

Why is the Sound of Music song “So Long, Farewell” suddenly an earworm? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nr64DrUZGCE

Old People with too much time on their hands. (I know: I live with one.)

Silly, but made me laugh!

That’s why he’s called a ‘bird-brain.’

If he doesn’t watch it the Bishop is going to clock him.

At least it’s not Benedict

Church funds is that the money they suck out of the parishioners every year keeps getting worse and worse they want more and more never stops

Bring on Father Guido Sarducci. Got a light?

♪♫ “When the cuckoo robin comes Father Bobbin along…” ♪♫

Christianity is cuckoo?

They are all cuckoo.

He belongs to an obscure order that makes chocolate breakfast cereal.

Yes the German cuckoo clock.

He better be careful where he stands: the bishop can move diagonally.

First time I’ve seen that hat used for something funny. Mind you they’re already funny in and of themselves. I wonder if they used to keep a snack in there, in case the prayer sessions ran long.

Besides, no one could find a good Latin translation for Cuckoo Clock.

“I was going to save it for High Mass, but I couldn’t resist.”

No time like the present!

They would be called “Your Grace” if they were of the Roman Catholic persuasion. If Episcopalian, a Bishop would be simply addressed as ‘Bishop’. It’s only when someone becomes an Archbishop that he (or she) is addressed as ‘You Grace’.

This would have been funnier one pope ago.
