Sister Italy

Did you hear? In Italy the nuns are so charming, "The Brazilians, in particular," that a priest has organized an online beauty pageant to determine which sister is the fairest of them all.

As the Guardian points out, the Father behind the pageant is Italian, and, incidentally, a man. Put the two together in a cloister and - bam! - you get a priest with a penchant for women in wimples?

Who would Jesus pick? Better yet, who would inspire Brassens?

This is so hilarious. He was going to call it "Miss Sister." Now that's a catchy name for a nun beauty pageant!!

Well sisters, I'm sad to report that the pageant has been called off. Curiously, the big boss wasn't too keen on the idea, or the publicity it garnered the Church. Crazy.

Hannah, I think Miss Sister could be a song off of XyCello's title LP, don't you?

Emilie, one really can't go wrong with a motto like that leading the way. I'd even venture to say that it's precisely why we're buddies!
