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.
McKinley was also assassinated; you think that might make him memorable.
Okay, yes, I only know that because of Sondheim.
I only know that because of Sarah Vowell.
I probably knew that he was assassinated when I was in grade school, but since then I'd forgotten which 19th-century presidents got shot.
shrift, will you marry me?
We'll run away together! You'll talk about math, and I will slounge and say, "Huh." And then we will let ita fight crime for us.
They can't just give up! One day your throne will be available.
The throne is vacant from whenever I leave in the evening to around 11am the next day. It's a time-share throne. They are welcome to avail themselves of it at such times when it is not in use by moi.
Speaking of thrones, I was out with friends Saturday after shopping for wedding gear, and after I broke the seal, I had to come back to the table and report, "The toilet paper dispenser is fomenting a coup d'etat. It wants to behead everyone connected with the throne."
ita, that link doesn't work for me. What does it say?
Apparently no pope.
I think that was this morning's lack-of-pope.
That link didn't work for me (ita's "no pope" link.)
I confused.
That was Monday. As far as I can tell, the bells also rang, today.
Apparently no pope.
That's what happened yesterday.
Maybe they're casting a spell to make them all Popes. An army of Popes...
The date stamp on ita's link indicates exactly what amych said. Think it was the first vote this morning.
It says that there was a bit of white smoke and then black smoke, so people were confused.
It says it was posted at 10:19 this morning, so I'm thinking that's EST? Cause there are bells going off, too, which PJPII decreed be done when they had in fact chosen a Pope so there was no confusion.
