[Dusty Rose]

I also came from a Polish-Catholic family, in Wisconsin. My mother would fry melt-in-your mouth beer-batter blue gill or lake perch. But often Friday nite would mean fish fry at a local tavern. Legal Seafood is also #1 on my list whenever I get to Boston. I love lobster the best. But in no way would that be "penance" for Friday.

[As you well know...]

Sure it would. Penance does not require you eat a diseased sucker netted in a spent fuel rod containment pool.
