Cornball Hmmm...can't imagine it holds a candle to St. Benedict's Wallingford Wurst Fest which was enjoyed by many neighborhood folks, Cat'lick and non, this past weekend.

Unfortunate for some such as myself, who prefer chicken.

Curses, if only I had my camera.

I'd probably still be attending mass if my old church did that.

And while we're at it, let's dump the organ for a proper accordion.

I mean, they've given that lil' tube-steak opposable thumbs and everything!

So, aborting a microscopic collection of undifferentiated cells is murder, but eating a smiling sausage with eyes, mouth, arms and legs is perfectly okay?

WTF?

Jubilation @ 1, the Wurst Fest used to be amazing, (back when I attended St. Ben's, and for many years after,) but in the last few years they have gotten rid of all of the carnie rides, and most of the good food stands that made it so great. Now it's full of inflatable castles and mediocre food offerings. Sad indeed.
