So reported the press-service of the Lviv City Council.

On the Day of the Patron Saint of Lviv, St. Yur (George), the Lvivers had an opportunity to attend a liturgy in the Cathedral of St. Yur led by Archbishop Ihor (Vozniak) and Bishop Venedykt (Aleksiichuk). So reported DailyLviv.

good stuff this; the represented diversity is encouraging, particularly with that of the moscow patriarchate. and official greets from yanukovych to our patriarch sviatoslav! Tschkavo - the times they be a-changin?' slava bohu for this!

"the lvivers"

whaaaa? can that be right? this plural effusion comes across as funny to me. not quite coffee squirting through the nose funny, but more like broca area parietal lobe sqeezing through the nose funny. makes me want to pun like a wildchild:

justin lviver (a stretch)
cirrhosis of the lviver (more so)
leave it to lviver (shoot me!)

Lemberger?
