I saw that too! I suppose I should have been reading something edifying instead of watching tabloid tele, since it was Friday, but you do what you have to to stay awake while pampering a fussy baby :wink: I highly doubt he was ROCOR, as his beard was pretty short and he wore a Roman-style collar and...
