Peanut Butter. This will be the fifth straight Lent. If it were possible, I would mainline PB.

"I'm Baptist, we don't give up anything."

Yep, growing up Baptist I only generally got the idea that Catholics give up something for lent.

Really? Or is that a "Baptists aren't allowed to have any fun anyway so what's the point of giving something up" joke? Anyway, I'm a Catholic and I always give up the drink for Lent, and this year I'm giving up, God help me, salt. It was the doc's suggestion and my gift to my wife. To tell you the truth, I'd rather give up my left arm than cut out salt. I know it sounds ridiculous to be so attached to salt, but I really think I'm going to feel the walk to Calvary very acutely this year

Jews don't recognize Jesus as the Messiah.

Protestants don't recognize the Pope as their leader.

Baptists don't recognize each other in the liquor store. :-)

(Before you attack me, I'm Baptist too.)
