It's ash Wednesday. There's also palm Sunday and Easter, but those are the only holy days in lent that land on Sunday.

They don't eat meat because they are fasting and when you fast you aren't supposed to eat meat. Except the magic fish meat, that doesn't count.

Actually, when you fast you son't eat anything. Lent is simply a less extreme version of that.

This reminds me of when we went to Spain and some people in my class were vegetarian... So they gave them chicken. Because chicken isn't meat.

Yeah, I've run into that. Why do some vegetarians say it's okay to eat chicken and fish? It makes no sense.

Fish die the worst deaths of all animals people eat. They get jerked out of their habitats by hooks in their mouths and suffocate to death. Imagine taking a bite of a hamburger and suddenly getting a hook in your mouth, being jerked under water in a lake, and drowning to death.

And thus, the fish-vs-human war begins....
