Shrove Tuesday (a.k.a.Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras)

Hattie on the contest between Clinton and Sanders, and among their supporters. Hawaii will go for whomever is the Democratic nominee, and Hillary enjoys more support locally anyway. Bernie isn't all he's cracked up to be as a peacenik.

Lent commences tomorrow, so I'll prepare some food ahead of time. I see using up the various beans, spices, and similar things over the next forty days (excluding Sundays).

Maybe Bloomberg will get in. He will make Trump look like a pauper.

Question: Lent is not an exclusively Catholic thing, then?
Bloomberg is too old.

I don't see a Bloomberg candidacy getting far. Besides his age, he has a very limited appeal.

Lent is popularly associated only with Catholics but is observed in many Christian churches and denominations.

He is the same age as Sanders and only 6 years older than Hillary. The hip young Democrat party has become the party of old white people.
