The Vatican Conclave is about to begin session to decide the next Pope so I have to fly out this week. Apparently there is a strong austerity motion in the Vatican as is in most major European countries, and the Vatican feels that as a joooo originally chose the first Pope it's only fitting that another irreverent joo oo select the new Pope this year. There are strong sentiments for one of these guys to be announced: I agree that in these trying times for the Vatican the next Pope has to be more representative of the ordinary people, so I am leaning to one of these as possible pontiffs I do like cigars.
even the morning news reported that a few cardinals have not arrived and are delayed due to prior commitments. I'm the "designated hitter", or as we like to refer to it " the shabbos joooo" we always have someone appointed, just in case. normally we never have to get involved, and nobody thought i would actually have to go; who knew? I have to pack my official robes and hat too. I haven't dressed up in a long time.
A few days ago Annie Hall was on where I was, and I'd forgotten how great WoodYi's Jew humor was....."They're anti-Semites I just know it! They said 'How'd JEW like that?' not 'How'd YOU' but 'How'd JEW!'" .....something like that....
