Hmm, it may be time to send Lauralea back to school


This Fall, King of King's College welcomed its first candidates for a groundbreaking minor in pastor's wiving, the first such degree offered in the country.


 "To be a pastor's wife you don't have to speak Greek and Hebrew, just be able to listen to it with an expression of sincere interest," says DuLac.
    In the chapel on the King of King's campus, twelve well-dressed female students sit on the front pew, their hair perfectly groomed, their nails painted a modest pink. Bibles are open on each lap. Though nobody is preaching and the room is all but empty, they nod and smile in silence, occasionally throwing in a demure "That's right" or "Amen." Finally, an instructor with a stopwatch yells, "Time's up!"
    The students collapse in their seats, rubbing their necks and cheek muscles.
    "We have to do that every Sunday?" one asks.
    "And Wednesdays, and special events," groans another.


It's a Lark.

  2. Now, has Lauralea signed up already or does she need a sponsor - you know, someone who can vouch for her ability to smile and be submissive and demure and all those things. I would be happy to buy her a bottle of pink nail polish so she could look really cool and with it in class.



    But I would also be prepared to duck quickly as she threw it at me.
