Seasons Greetings to all the losers who had parents that didn't
get the memo about Lent!

Lent:-
"In Western churches it begins on Ash Wednesday, six and a half
weeks before Easter, and provides a 40-day period for fasting
and abstinence."

Just checking: you do know the difference between Advent (the lead up to Christmas), and Lent (the lead up to Easter)? ;)

Hi Dean,
As a long lapsed catholic, of course I know.
For a child to be born around Christmas, mum and dad must have ignored the abstinence clause leading up to Easter. :naughty:

It really irks me when I buy organic vegetables and then realize after I get home that they're just regular donuts.

📣📣📣 So...Anybody interested in a free ride in a helicopter for 4 people? I'm still looking for 2 more to join us. We leave early Friday morning (Dec 15th, 2023) from Chicago, and will fly to a rooftop where we will have breakfast, then have lunch on the river. 💪 😲 👇
Then we’ll do a flight around the city to see Christmas lights and skyline, then out on a yacht for dinner, then fly back home. If interested, please message me. Preferably someone with a helicopter and yacht, otherwise we can't go...
