    Ash Wednesday Today

    So, what are you going to give up for Lent? I'm thinking coherency. All my posts will look like Hajji Rudi's until Easter.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Usually give up water skiing for lent.
    If it's a war on drugs, then free the POW's.

    I've been a recovering Catholic since age 15. On Halloween I dress as something scary. The scariest thing I can think of is a priest.

    Nuns are the scariest thing I know. I went to the same school as George Carlin did for 7 years. I had 4 of the same nuns as he did and one was a horror show. He did a bit on them in his album "Class Clown."

    Hello

    After I do a secret recon at the deep water naval base in Montana, I am going to fly over to the Vatican and announce to the World what I am giving up for Lent. Need me to swing by and pick any of you up? We can work on converting old bicycle tires into rhombic antennas during the flight. And if there is enough time, we can make fractal antennas out of the spokes. Sound like fun?
