See, I Told You So....

Remember this post?

Well, sure as night follows day, the indults have begun appearing....
Cardinal Rigali has granted a dispensation from the Lenten obligation to abstain from eating meat on Friday, March 17, 2006 because of the Feast of Saint Patrick. The Cardinal encourages those who wish to take advantage of this dispensation to perform some other Lenten work of piety or charity.
As you can see, it doesn't take much to be prophetic in this line of work.

I'd like to "keep score," as it were, of US dioceses which aren't granting meat indults for Paddys.... And I trust you'll all keep me well-appraised of that.
