an afternoon in court..or was it church?

My seminary friend Talbot just spend an afternoon in court..or was it church?
Read it here, and weep.

A few years ago, another couple of seminary friends (Bruce and Belinda McDanel) asked to borrow something from my closet I hadn't used in years: the black preaching robe (You may remember I sold the other "dress" on Ebay..see this for story and unpretty pictures).
I thought maybe one of them was going to guest preach in a liturgical church.

Turns out they were doing a play at church and needed someone to play the part of..

  a judge!
