| What should I give up for Lent? |
|
I have decided for sure to give up abstinence, but does anyone else have any ideas?
One year I gave up French Fries (which was hard because I worked at McDonald's). I could do chocolate, but I already had some tonight and that would be really hard. I could do soda, but I only drink that when hungover or really really thirsty.
Any ideas?

Now........I NEED IT BAD!!!
PS. Chicks don't dig virgins...they dig dudes who know what to do.
Edit: I'm experienced in everything else but sex.

Calories. That would be a hell of a challenge. Like the Iron Man of eating. Or the pentathalon of self-control. I really just wanted to say Iron Man of eating.

| 7. Our 5 year old son thinks he is being really good |
|
by giving up a Playstation 2 game that he does not like! He doesn't quite understand the concept that it has to be something he does like!
What about cussing? That is what I do. That will be really hard for me considering the idiot that we have for pResident. I can barely manage to say his name without some sort of dirty word before it!

| 11. that is an interesting suggestion, but the logic becomes kind of |
|
circular, don't you think?
I am observing a religious ritual by giving up religion, so if I give up religion for Lent, then how can I observe Lent if I am no longer religious?
Sort of a conundrum, no?
