Is the beverage Diak just mentioned by any chance the Melk Shake? I'm told that young gentlemen seeking Greek-Catholic brides of Arabic background are searching for the land of Melkites and honey.

Ah, I see that there's no Melk of human kindness to be had here :rolleyes:

I myself have, though, met many Melk-maids in my years at Annunciation.

Many years,

Neil, who can't believe that he got melked into participating in this dialogue :p .

CHRIST IS RISEN!

Going back a couple of weeks, one of my favorite verses of the Third Stanza of the Praises sung at Holy Saturday Orthros (on Good Friday evening) is:

When she saw her Youngling
on the Cross suspended
the Heifer moaned with weeping!
