“The Number 23” opens at theaters everywhere today. The movie deals with secrets and the need to repent by confession. The movie’s promotion department is sponsoring a contest. Your videotaped confession (you can blur yourself out, tape in the dark, or do anything you need to do to guarantee anonymity) could win you $2300.
The Catholic season of Lent began Wednesday and marks the 40 days before Easter. During Lent, Catholics are encouraged to go to Confession. I never had much to confess when I was little and have never been to Confession as an adult (can you imagine how far the line would back up waiting for me to finish?). I maintain that I live life without regret, but there are a few things I am sorry for.
I confess: I’m sorry I did that stupid, hurtful thing. I think about it still and it rankles every time I remember. I hope you’ve forgiven me, and I hope that you’ve had many successes in your life since then.
Videotape your confession and submit it to YouTube for a crack at winning $2300.

Or, post your confession here in the blog comments and you’ll win my admiration instead. Whether that’s worth $2300 is up for debate.
