It's that time of year... the annual embarrassment of letting your buddy/co-worker/business associate, that they have dirt or something on their face and pointing at them only to get "The look". I love it... every year. "Hey, you need to wash up there pal.". LOLs.

Does anyone have any good stories of foot in mouth on Ash Wednesday or a story about how strange they thought the whole thing was when they realized they hadn't met an honest to God Catholic until they moved to KC because they grew up in Shitkick KS and everyone was Methodist or Lutheran?
