uncomfortable news from across the pond...

From the UK’s The Sun tabloid –

A 50-year-old vicar recently turned up in agony at Northern General Hospital in Sheffield -- with a potato up his rectory. The clergyman told incredulous nurses he had pitched backwards onto his kitchen table while hanging curtains in the nude and well…why does God do bad things to good people? The rear reverend had to undergo a delicate operation to extract the offending spud, which was hardly the rummiest thing medics have pulled from people’s bums including a cuke, a can of deodorant, a Russian Matrushka doll -- and a carnation…(brings a new meaning to the song title “A White Sport Coat and a Pink Carnation”, eh???)
