    I'm fasting.
    I only put one olive in my pre-dinner Martini instead of the usual two.
    Sacrifices must be made you know.

    I won't eat meat today.
    You have year-round fast on meat! Ha! You must really be religious about something!

    Grand sense of humour Tar!

    Oh, I was going to ask you... Are the rumours true that veggies scream when they are cut during harvesting?

    The only people who would fast on ash wednesday are either old, or prudes. FACT!

    The only solace I get from eating bad tasting vegetables is hearing their screams.

    Bah, I'm not Catholic so no fasting. One rather nice Peking Duck dinner was had, and the bag of chocolate-covered strawberries while spending several hours playing WoW was great :)
