Hello Wayne,

>CH>Is anyone having any trouble finding any news that hasn't got a pope
>CH>in it?

WC>News? What news?
WC>Nothing but crap on T.V. anymore I no longer listen to the "News."
WC>It's all media pandering to to the public's lowest common
WC>denominator base instincts.

WC>Where's Walter Cronkite when you need him?

It seems all the great ones are leaving.  Tom Brokaw, Peter Jennings,
Dan Rather, Ted Koppel...

>CH>When does this crap blow over? YOu'd think the whole entire
>CH>human race were catholic.

WC>I couldn't care less about the pope.

It was sad to see him going through so much pain and suffering the past
few years.  In a way, it was a relief to know he is now with the Lord.

WC>I do however find it funny all those people standing around in the
WC>square just torn up in emotion over nothing at all.

Yet those same folks never shed a tear when Paul VI died.
And those same folks never shed a tear when John Paul I died.
Maybe they preferred a showman or an actor such as JPII.
Or rather the show he had put on for the world.

--Lee
