Speaking of Abstinence....

So there's a bit of weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth out there about all these lax heterodox liberal American bishops granting dispensations for St. Paddy's Day as it's falling on a Lenten Friday.... We can only assume that, by this coin, Fabian Bruskewitz and Tom Olmsted are included in that bunch, as they're giving indults, too.

But what's the policy on no-meat Fridays in the Land of Pell?

The days of fasting and abstinence from meat are Ash Wednesday and Good Friday.

What a hoot.
