If you want a hair shirt just buy an alpaca sweater for 20 bucks.

You're right. If you want yet a more itchy one buy a sweater of pure (Scotch) Shetland wool. (The fibers are shorter than those of alpaca). Be humble, buy a used one by eBay (5 - 10$).

My MSN and Skype are the same as my AIM name in the profile.  PM me if you're on YIM and wish to bother me.  :p  (Actually, PM me period before contacting me outside of Fisheaters so I know who you are and don't knee-jerk block you.)

St. Francis of Sales ( "Introduction to the Devout Life " ) warned married people to avoid cilice or hair-shirt.  Penance is a way of prier, imagine your own way. If you want, start fasting. It resembles a physical exercise for maintaining physical fitness.

I'd say "Get married." Between a souse and your in-laws, that can amount to some pretty heroic spiritual mortification.

A good friend and worthy adversary.

Live your life in such a way that every morning when your feet hit the floor...Satan shudders and says..."Oh No...he's AWAKE!"

Sometimes the Internet reminds me of being in a chicken coop with an infinite number of Chicken Littles at any given millisecond dodging pieces of their falling skies.

There is a subtle difference between "invincible ignorance" and intolerably stupid.
