Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I sent my sister the Authentic Jamaica article, and she's royally pissed, because they've just outed her favourite vacation spots. We used to go to one of them (Frenchman's Cover) when I was little, but it's been years for me. She goes to Port Antonio many times a year.

If I only had a brain...

Speaking of which, a friend claims CNN has called him officially dead.

[The Pope, not Jamaica. As I understand it, Jamaica is just fine.]

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Looks like.

From CNN:

BREAKING NEWS Reuters: Italian media reporting Pope John Paul II has died. Details soon.

There's been no Vatican confirmation of the Pope's passage....

What is even happening?

On the TV, in the scroll bar at the bottom of the page, and t memfault some of the other label-y graphics they have towards the bottom, CNN states Italian Media are reporting the Pope has died, but that CNN has not independently confirmed it.

Sorry to bore everyone with the sarcastic Scientific American post. I never realized how jaded the Buffistae are about April Fool's Day.
