Bonus! Song o' the Day — 5 Days 'til SKApril


Mu330, "Raw Fish" from Ultra Panic (Rude Boy St. Mike Papa Whiskey)

Skammentary: Though the Lenten fish fry traditionally runs all the way through Good Friday (in 2020, 10 April) & this year my council's was scheduled to run through Friday, 3 April, His Excellency the Most Reverend Earl Boyea, the fifth Bishop of Lansing, has decreed that all Knights of Columbus & parish fish fries are to end by Wednesday, 1 April. As a consequence, today's fish fry & fish bake was the end of the already abbreviated & highly disrupted season. Our revenues are minimal, which will negatively effect our charitable giving, & I am sore toward my shepherd, flabbergasted by his decision. We were already observing health & safety protocols above & beyond Governor Whitmer's constitutionally-dubious diktats. What more could we have done?

Nevertheless, he is our shepherd & we obey. The measure of obedience is not when you agree with what you are being ordered to do, but when you disagree vehemently & obey anyway.
