I'm giving up meat and dairy for lent.  Except for butter in cooking.

What are all of you giving up?
Let's bomb Russia!

I wanted to do the full Greek Lent inspired by Kazantzakis, but I could face giving up dairy, eggs, meat, fish, oil and wine :bleeding:

Fast food.  And hard liquor except when I really, really need a hit.

The same as every year.  I am giving up self-immolation.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

For you crazy southern Baptists, it's the time before Easter.  You know about Easter, when you people dye your multicolored snakes.

Nothing, unless giving up meat on Friday for much better fish counts towards it.

I usually go to the fish fry over at the local Catholic high school once or twice.  They've always got some nice looking moms working.

I giving up the war on christmas, if only to start the war on lent.
