We've all heard various forms of that expression.
A couple of my parishioners went to Mexico for a vacation recently. They came back with a t-shirt for me:
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day.
Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat and drink Beer all day.
Fish 24:7
Mrs. Ref asked if I wore it to the bar tonight (being bar night and all). "No, I wear my clericals."
"Oh .... too bad."

A Few Words About Comments
Comments are always welcome here, but there are a few things you should know:
1) If you comment, leave a name. If you can't figure out how to log in or register or whatever the system is making you do (which, believe me, I fully understand how frustrating that can be) and you must comment anonymously . . . leave a name in the comment section. Purely anonymous comments will be deleted.
2) Comments I deem to be offensive, irrelevant, or generally trollish will be deleted. I'm mainly talking to the Akurians here. Don't make me get out my flag!
3) If you would like to receive e-mail notification of other comments so you can more easily follow a conversation (yeah, like I ever have those on this blog), you must register with Blogger. Sorry . . . I didn't have anything to do with that one.
Enjoy the game.

You CAN wear t-shirts over clericals. That one would be an ideal case.
A t-shirt over clericals? Are you serious?
I don't think so.
