People need to stop sending me work. Don't they know I have some very important slacking off to do?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I think fascism is a pretty big stretch. I am concerned about the corporate consolidation of the media, the voting machines with no paper trail, and politicians wrapping themselves in patriotism and religion.

They've given the pope last rites. [link]
This sounds odd, but I'm interested in seeing all the pomp and circumstances surrounding the election of a new pope -- the white smoke, and all...and I'm kinda wondering what all will happen at my school when the pope dies. More masses? A day off for mourning?

The hair needs to be red and I need to lose an few inches off of my tummy for it to be really accurate.
I'm trying to remember what my sister and brother went through at their Catholic high schools when JPI and his predecessor both died--I think that they had memorial masses at the schools, and the new popes were announced over the intercoms, but that was about it.
I think the mass is a gimme, but we got out so many days for SB and Easter that I'd be surprised if we got a day off.
It's kind of sad, remembering the Pope when he first showed up, all energetic and young-ish and non-Italian. I don't think he ever came back all the way after being shot.
Oh, god, I'm in a Catholic college for another five weeks. Ack.
