Dunno what State you were in, but I grew up in Taxachusetts.

I was an altar boy on Cape Cod long before MS came on the scene.
Life was quite good then.  Eat fish on Fridays and there was little 
or no litigation.

Not me anymore; yet now I eat fish all the time.  But I'd suggest 
you say 3 "Our Father's", 10 "Hail Mary's", and do an "Act of 
Contrition" for all your sins. <g>   (And be generous during the 
Offertory, Lord knows, it's needed today to pay for upgrade 
licenses!)
