Happy Easter to all of Spofi!

Nice post, Bo. Our priest (a native of Long island) tried a variation of the first suggestion. He informed all of us New Hampshire parishioners that the Easter Miracle would be our resurrection as Yankee fans. It's been a long-running joke in the parish.

Otherwise, it was a nice grilled lamb dinner and NCAA hoops for our house.

Happy Easter to all.

I went skiing yesterday with the rest of the heathen. They did have an egg hunt at the base lodge, though, and a bunch of the lifties were wearing bunny ears. Does that count as a religious observance?
