BISHOPS RELAX LENT RULES
By Stockton
In observance of the Catholic Church's most holy day, Bishops have waived the "no meat on Friday" rule for this coming Friday. The occasion? Saint Patrick's Day. After an exhaustive survey, the Bishops determined that corned beef absorbs alcohol faster than any other man-cured product.
The rule banning alter boys on Friday's has not been waived.
