I just bought a fish for my truck, and I noticed the p symbol, with the x on the lower portion on it, now I have seen it many times before, but never knew what it meant. I alway s assumed priest, anyone care to help me.

Zoticus,

It's a symbol traditionally called the "Chi-Rho" (chi -> like "kay" in kayak, rho -> like the verb "row"), and it's the first two letters in Christ's name spelled in Greek: XP (chi rho). Hope this helps.

Now where's my Coke? ;)

Yours,
Pio Nono
