1:10 PM -- You can bet on pretty much anything, it seems. Paddy Power, "Ireland’s largest bookmaker" (soi disant), emails us the latest odds on what people (Irish Catholics, mostly, I'd guess) are giving up for Lent. According to the oddsmakers...
Most Popular Lenten Abstention
11/8 Chocolate
7/4 Eating red meat
8/1 Alcohol
10/1 Twitter
10/1 Facebook
12/1 Tobacco
14/1 Playing Lotto
16/1 Eating Out
18/1 Betting
20/1 Sex
25/1 iPods
33/1 Mobile Phones
40/1 Going to church
50/1 Going to work
The Irish, apparently, will give up sex before surrendering their iPods... "You'll need to pry it from my free hand..."
