But Are They Processing In Gondolas?

Today's ordination in Venice (Florida) is such big news that there's a story out there about the line to get into the cathedral.

Wow.
They’re eager to welcome [Coadjutor Bishop Frank] Dewane to the diocese.

“I’m so excited I can’t stand it,” Betty Galvano of Fort Myers who attends St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church.
Che gioia -- the bishop gets a honeymoon.
In a press conference earlier today, Dewane pledged to be a spiritual leader of Southwest Florida’s 233,000 Catholics.
Now that's bold. After the brouhaha, guess he just wanted to play it safe.
