i was talking to my older sister the other day, and she dared me to give up models for Lent. whatever. i don’t think she was joking though. even if she wasn’t, i wouldn’t. what about you? would you give up models for Lent? i know its a little late, but… be honest, and the Easter Bunny might give you an extra candy-egg in a couple of weeks! [:O] [swg] take care ya’ll

Sacrelige!!! I think I’d give up Lent for Lent They’ve already robbed me of my Friday Steak what more do they want!!!
No.
Kind of late, isn’t it? [:D]
The most recent philosophy has not been so much to give something up as to do something extra, a positive, pro-active approach rather than a negative one. This attitude has the potential of on going benefits as you develop a habit of doing that whatever, instead of punishing yourself (and resenting those that would deprive you of something.) Self depravation gets you, well, depravation. Doing somethiong extra will potentially help others as well.
Why? For whom profit?
I won’t give up anything for Lent. [:-^]
AMEN!!! [C):-)]
I gave up Lent for Modeling! And that is all I have to say about that subject.
Nope. In my book, modelingness is next to holiness. [angel]
I don’t know what lent is and I couldn’t even tell you when Easter is[:(]
So by that philosophy you should model EXTRA during lent, AJ? I like your thinking man.
THAT IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT, BABY!!! YEAH!! whew! getting a little carried away there! [8D] [C):-)]
The way my building habits are as of late, I might as well as given up modeling for Lent…
[;)]
Giving up something I don’t do enough of now isn’t all that hard. [;)]
nope. I always thought giving up something was completely pointless anyway. What purpose could it possibly serve?
Well,
[(-D] Nah, but I got some navel lent I would give up for a model.
That’s all I got to say.
Give me models or give me death! j/k
I gave up smoking my cigars for every lent since 3 years ago… I’m dying to have that nice Cohiba right about now…
Atheism keeps me modeling pretty much anytime I please.
aaa yes,the age old question of lent.well my wife takes care of the le[^]nt problem around my place
As someone who’s been AROUND Catholocism, but never part of it, that actually sounds kind of cool. Having been around it I understood the reasoning for it, but the practice didn’t seem to often live up to it - at least to this observer. I’d see people give up smoking or drinking, just to start again after Easter (and yes, be resentful, cantankerous and whatnot the entire time). And the whole meatless thing never made much sense to me - not just because I hate eating fish, but it seemed so many folks in the Jesuit high school and college I went to were eating skanky fried cod automatically, out of habit, without putting much thought to it. I know for several folks it’s a prayerful, reflective experience, but it seems lots of other folks just make themsevles miserable out of habit every spring “just because” and if there’s any thought behind it at all it’s often this one upmanship of who can make themselves more miserable.
The doing something good sound much better all the way around. Why not make the world a better place, instead of making me endure your bad mood while you jones for a smoke - or even worse smell that nasty fish…
