What prompted the priest to hastily say to the layman he was walking with, "You need to talk to your priest really soon!!!"
Why wasn't he his priest? Give me some context, commenters!

Things I Overheard Yesterday - Vol. 2
So, it wasn't yesterday, but it was Friday, which is really close to yesterday.
Before running off to a little dinner party, I stopped in the local liquor store to buy some bottles of something. The store's stock boy opened the door for me as a Sammy Hagar-ish type song started playing over the store radio. I said thanks and I thought that I was probably done with him. I picked out my beer, and headed to the register. I walked past the stock boy again, but I didn't make eye contact with him. After I had passed him, he said [to me?] "I think this was in a Blue Angels thing." I don't know who he was talking too, but I was determined to have it not be so I ignored it. I continued with my transaction. Thirty seconds later, another guy came in and before he even got over the threshold, the stock boy said, "Yeah. This was definitely in a Blue Angels thing." This time, he was definitely talking to the new guy, but the new guy ignored him as I did.
Here's your quiz:

Here's your quiz:
- What sort of "thing" do the Blue Angels do? Are they the flip-floppy plane guys?
- Was it really Sammy Hagar?
- Was he talking to me?
- Why did he start that conversation with the other guy as if they had been talking about it previously?
- Why did the other guy just ignore him?
- Before I arrived, why was the stock boy standing halfway outside of the store trying to catch the rain?
- Was this in a Blue Angels thing?

Things I Overheard Yesterday - Vol. 1
Yesterday, I was walking to Quizno's and I walked passed two middle aged women smoking on steps of a church (St. James Something Or Another.) They seemed like they were talking about some serious shit. One lady left and either said, "I'm so glad I found Grace at St. James" or "I'm so glad I found grace at St. James."
The other one woman (Grace??) responded, "I know."
Anybody know these ladies?
