Well I just heard on the news that the 1040 year old (well he seems like it..) pope has just died, I dont really know anything about the pope, but weve had a few jokes based on him, so...yeah.

I wonder who the new pope will be, and if any shows on tv will joke about it..wait, this is my chance to usurp the popes throne in the vatican! Pope sinow the 1st, I shall controll catholics with an iron fist!

Yeah it really seemed to affect many people. I heard that a huge crowd of 60,000 people gathered at St. Peters Square to pray for him. Well I found a tidbit of info about the process of getting a new pope
"The conclave to elect a new pope will start in 15 to 20 days, with 117 cardinals from around the world gathering in the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel to choose a successor. "

And Sinow this might give you hope-
"In theory, any adult Roman Catholic male, though for centuries only cardinals have been elected pope."

*Sigh...* I don't even know that much about the pope... yet I feel seel bad for him. You know, being 15 feet into the earth and all. But I guess the pope, being catholic and all, is in heaven now, because that's what catholics are suppost to believe, and if so... I guess he's better off there. 'Sides, you don't need to speak in heaven... you communicate telepathically... right?

But to be honest with you all... I'm sick and tired of seeing nothing but the pope on newspapers and on tv. I mean, c'mon... we know he's dead, now just leave him alone. They've talked about the pope so much on TV, that their running out of people to interview. They've already begun interviewing some rabbis, amonsgt other absolutely random and unrelative people. Ugh! I haven't been this angry at TV since princess diana died! She died... yes, I know that... SO WHY IS IT ON EVERY CHANNEL FOR THREE FREAKIN' WEEKS?!

The cardinals should just put their names in a hat, perhaps the pope's hat, and decide on a pope that way. lol... it'd speed things up, for sure. :mellow:
