Viva il Papa!
Tuesday, April 19, 2005
Congrats to Joe Ratzinger from Deutschland, who celebrated a birthday on Saturday and then got voted in as the new leader of every Catholic on earth. Glücklicher Geburtstag!

I was interested in hearing about him, until I read this and this. The trouble begins already. Thank goodness he is 78 and won't be in the position forever.

So allegedly Pope Benedict XVI is narrow-minded. Big whoop. Too bad he doesn't have a sense of humor - I would love to see him enter and exit a room to "Benny & The Jets" by Elton John. It would make watching him ride around in that teeny, bullet-proof golf cart WAAAAYYY more interesting. Especially the part where there's just music and Elton has that bitchin' whistling solo.
