You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Vice President talking about the Pope

Not many things can be more wrong than that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now it's the actual Pope talking, so that's something...

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

At least the Vice President didn't take the Pope hunting....

Now it's a shot of the plane, so I guess he's on his way back. For anyone keeping a close eye on the Pope.

Does his plane have a cute name, like Pope Force One?

It looks like a regular Al Italia plane, but maybe they do call it something a little more holy when Il Papa gets in there.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I loved Jon Stewart offhandedly mentioning this week that Popes in general are kind of nice -- "ever since they stopped having their own armies" which is totally true.

Ginger, I totally thought you were kidding, until they just said Shepard I on the TV!

not your mom's socks.

Bill Clinton and Michele Obama need to stop robo-calling me now. I did amuse DH with some fairly racy conversation with Bill. Not that he responded. but you know. Men.

We did a good deed last night & steered an Obama canvaser from Colorado to the really good veg/vegan restaurant up the street; then, when we saw him 2 hours later, headed in the totally wrong direction, got him pointed towards the place he was staying again.

Tuesday cannot come too soon.

Meara, you're a great zombie! vw - couldn't see the quilt (wah), but what a thoughtful gift.
