Dangerously OT: Happy Passover and Easter

[Crowpointer]

Nothing like a TWO HOUR AND FORTY-FIVE MINUTE Easter Vigil mass tonight.

Good Lord. Literally.

I went an Easter Vigil mass a few years ago (2 hours) and unless I have to I'll settle for the bedlam of the sunday morning family (ie Kids) Mass with kids running everywhere (mine included) and the church so overcrowded that if the fire marshall saw it he would faint. Oh by the way Happy Easter

See this is why more Jews didn't convert to Christianity... well, plus the fact that you'd have to take communion on Easter, and even if they used unleavened wafers, you still have the "He is risen" thing, and if he's risen, well, then he's not kosher for pesach.

QED.

The Haggadah bit was done in record time by Miss Gcat's dad. It is all very interesting, talking about plagues and rescue from the Egyptians in his version of Hebrew (which is obviously not his native language). It was Metallica's "Creeping Death" without the James Hetfield vocals and power chords. There was lots of flicking through a book, seemingly at random, eating parsley dipped in salt water, charoset, sweet wine and then some lovely food.
The Easter Bunny was incredibly generous to us as well, although this might not help my body, which is Nose Tackle-like, minus the muscle. I'm an extremely lapsed Catholic, so didn't attend any masses.

Be happy they flicked through seemingly at random... there's a bit in there about "whoever does not explain these things, has not done his duty on the passover..." It's a great short-form generator.

Also be happy if the flicking through did not include Greatest Hits of Pesach (yes, there are songs.) Whatever God "chose" us for, I dare say it was not the ability to generate upbeat melodies.

Hag Pesach! PFnV had his customary roast beef n matza for lunch today... rashm frashm bread of freakin affliction... and is all about Freedom!
