Your Humble Blogger is aware that making fun of headlines—particularly internet headlines—is the last refuge of the unimaginative, but I couldn’t help chortling at Pope Sought and Offered Forgiveness. Well, good luck finding him, whoever you are, but I suspect it’s too late for that forgiveness business. Unless they mean that the College of Cardinals (Go Cards!) are seeking the new Pope, and are offering to forgive the whole fleeing from the assembled Princes of the Church. I saw that movie; Robbie Coltrane was great.
chazak, chazak, v’nitchazek,
-Vardibidian.
even the pope had overdue library books.
The Language Log boys link to a Reuters story under the headline Island Monks Fly in Satellite to Watch Pope Funeral.
Perhaps, while they are up there, they can help with the seeking.
Thanks,

“ready for those cool island nights? here’s brother francis in an elegant abstract batik frock, tied for easy movement with a rayon-hemp blend rope belt with matching polished silver incense burner. underneath – simple, casual bermuda shorts with wide pockets for both rosary and that ever important beach accessory… a good book.”
