I’m sitting here looking for the “Like” button … having just read articles about one of the leading replacement candidates (from Ghana) being a supporter of Uganda’s “Kill the Gays” bill and Bill Keller’s not-hopeful (but, I fear, largely accurate) blog entry today – THANKS for the great humor! I needed the laugh. -

Love it! The best ex Benedict I saw had endives fashioned into a miter.
Endive will raise you up…

It seems that Uganda’s cardinal actually called a press conference!
He apparently doesn’t know the old saying about conclaves:
Walk in a pope, walk out a cardinal.-

Sorry, Ghana’s cardinal, not Uganda. Must have had Idi Amin on my mind!

Does it come with asperges??

Turkson is a disgrace. He vaunts of his fittingness to be Pope — ha! chi entra papa, esce cardinale.
He is Islamophobic and homophobic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=7ar5Cw5Ru1I

Before I spend hours trying to find a connection between Donizetti’s “Quando di luce rosea” and Cardinal Turkson…do you have the correct link here?

Hmm…no sign of Islamophobia or Homophopia in “Quando di luce rosea” in Maria Stuarda’s confession:When with rosy light
The day shone upon me,
When amidst happy sights
My spirit delighted,
Love made me sin,
Love opened the abyss.
At its sweet smile
I hated my consort;
Henry! Henry! Ah, woe on you,
In me you found death,
But his grim voice
Strikes into the depths of my heart, ah!
Beloved shadow, Ah! Be still,
I feel death in my breast.
Let my tears suffice,
Let my torment requite you.

You realise the economic situation is deeply serious when even God starts laying people off.
