\"This<\/a>Friends,<\/p>\n

Today is Mardi Gras, the last day before Lent begins. I, for one, will be whooping it up by making pancakes<\/a>. Yup, I’ve completely gone off the rails. Is there nothing I won’t<\/i> do?<\/p>\n

P.S. It’s also worth mentioning that Abe Vigoda (who is not dead, so just stop it. – ed<\/i>) turns 88 today, and the calendar used today by most people except kooks and Pope Gregory XIII haters was invented by Pope Gregory XIII on this day in 1582.

UPDATE: Had to replace the photo and the link. The old one was getting blocked for some reason.<\/p>\n

UPDATE II: Changed the pancakes link to point to a Wikipedia section on Shrove Tuesday. You’re welcome!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
