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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
They've given the pope last rites. [link]

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
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?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

The hair needs to be red and I need to lose an few inches off of my tummy for it to be really accurate.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, god, I'm in a Catholic college for another five weeks. Ack.

I wasn't in Catholic school when the last pope died but when our diocese's bishop died when I was in (Catholic) H.S. we got the day off. Way to make a bunch of kids go "WOOOOT" at your death.
