Brother-in-Law (BiL) and Sister-in-Law (SiL) searched high and low for an appropriate souvenir for me while they were on their honeymoon in Italy. Their original idea was to purchase a fancy Venetian glass figurine of a beaver for me. After learning the Italian word for beaver (
castoro), they asked at many shops, and many shop keepers laughed. They learned that
castoro can also mean "goatee," which is fascinating, but not helpful to their quest. No one made glass beavers. (Incidentally, they did get a cute glass pussy for Mother in Law...)
Since no glass beavers were to be secured, they bought me the next best thing:
Your eyes do not deceive you. This is the cover photo from a
sexy priest calendar.
"We thought this was a Steph-worthy gift," BiL said proudly as he handed me the calendar. SiL beamed.
My jaw hit the ground. Other than stammering, "Damn! This is the most perverse gift I've ever received," over and over again, I was speechless. Well done, BiL and SiL. Well done.
damn, i am gonna return to Catholicism!
ReplyDeleteThe Ellen show had calendars in her opening speech the other morning. She had "Nuns Having Fun". For real! I think you need that one too. :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, I think I need to confess!
ReplyDeletei may have to reconsider my views on organized religion...
ReplyDeleteHOLY crap!
ReplyDeletethe most important question - where can I buy one of these?
ReplyDeleteI don't remember seeing calendars like that when I was in Catholic School!
