Doyle ,'Life of the Party'
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.
Are you kidding.
It's going to make me actually start wishing for a hurricane. Or freak April blizzard. Because that totally sends local news around the bend, so much so that if you don't have cable (I don't) you'd think the whole planet gave a shit over the flooding on Pratt Street.

Are you kidding. There's the life story of the new Pope and what-it-means-for-the-church stories galore to saturate the airwaves with.
Not just the life story of the new Pope, but an inspiring life story. Like, how he grew up in a humble environment, and... I don't know - cured all the stray cats of leprosy or something....
Wait, proto-Popes generally don't do miracles, do they?
If it's Ratzinger, he is SO going to saint JPII by acclamation.
Also, if it's Ratzinger, his inspiring youth includes service in the Hitlerjugend (then mandatory) and service in the Nazi army manning anti-aircraft guns.
Wait, proto-Popes generally don't do miracles, do they?
I'm pretty sure they do miracles, and it looks good on the paplication. The Italian canidates probably have a bunch of miracles and get surly with some non-Italian who gets nominated with only a couple of card-tricks under their belt.
We had big traffic snarl-ups in Chicago this morning because of the image of the Virgin Mary that apparently is masquerading as water damage on an underpass.
The Vatican!Cam is actually pretty cool.
I saw that on the news last night -- too funny.
I keep wondering if there will be a schism between the US Catholics and Rome. And I wonder if Ratzinger is in, if that would precipitate it.
