Talk:Lent

Easter came one day after the Solstice in 2008, too. It was quite bizarre having Lent begin so early--going straight from the Super Bowl (not that I watched it, between being in a country where no one gave a shit and having the two teams I hate most playing; but I looked up who won, and couldn't believe my eyes) to Mardi Gras. And to add to the joke it was also Lunar New Year that week so the school was closed Wednesday through Friday. The Archbishop of Seoul did away with the requirement to fast on Ash Wednesday because that was a traditional day of huge-ass family dinners. A most unusual week altogether. Good times were had, though. Turtle Fan 17:58, February 2, 2010 (UTC)
