And one other thing, BTW...

Anybody else find it fitting that Mardi Gras, the last day of sin, vice and indulgence before Lent, and Super Tuesday both fall on the exact same day this year?

It’s actually Supercalifragalisticexpialidoius Tuesday; it’s just that most media types don’t want to try to spell it that way.

LOL

In Britain we call Shrove Tuesday Pancake Day the day when years ago you had to consume all the fat, eggs etc before the 40 days of Lent.

This is the subject I have chosen for the Singles Thread this weekend, it also includes a recipe for English pancakes.

Anyone who is interested here is a link to it.
