I really should update this thing more often.

The only thing that's really new to report is that I went and got ashes today.

I have no idea what to give up for Lent (it's not gonna be posting).

I gave up the papacy 2 years ago.

I gave up dogma 4 years ago.

Give up your favourite webcomics. XKCD, Questionable Content, and Menage a 3.

You could, instead of giving something up, do something new and charitable-like. You don't need to go all bazokajoe_2k about it, but it's something to consider.

Catholic Jesus only loves you when you suffer.

DUUUUH

Hehehe, I suppose. I'm fairly sure my wife, good Catholic girl that she is, told some time or another that the "giving stuff up" thing was been, not replaced, but supplemented, by a "doing something good" thing. I may be mistaken - you know how fuzzy memory gets when you reach decrepitude - but that's what I recall her telling me.

Too right. Don't forget, the schools I went to were still in the Inquisition.

Hell no.

Give up something that you'll actually miss. I gave up cookies for one Lent and didn't start eating them again for like a year later, so strong was my resolve not to enjoy life.

I've narrowed it down to either not posting at FO or not posting at SA. I need one forum because otherwise I'll have nothing to do at work.
