Prompted by my cousin who is a prolific and annoying facebook addict who has to tell the world every minutae of her drab little life.

Q) what do you all think i should give up for Lent?
A) err, Facebook?
Q) oh no uncle mike, i couldnt possibly do that because i need to keep in touch with my blah blah blah

In a similar vein, any thoughts on what you would like to give up, really would like to give up but cant do without , what you really wish other people would give up etc etc

    I'm confused, is she your cousin or niece (or are you in one of those parts of the country where the boundaries are blurred?).

    I've decided to give up being diplomatic and to speak my mind for once.

    Lent, mainly
    And the people bowed and prayed, to the neon god they made.
