A friend emailed me recently and told me her husband had eloped with a priest. I think the priest was Episcopal, but apparently he was a male. (Meaning the priest not her husband. Husbands are generally male. Though my sister's last partner but one had a very respectable mustache. My sister's love life is one of the finer arguments against romance I can think of and all of her significant others have been ladies. But that's another story.)
