So what?
After fifteen years in a permanent vegetative state, some old curmudgeon was finally allowed to die today in Italy.
I had a quick look around to see who could take over his job (which always seemed to involve waving feebly and mumbling, but I digress). Here are my nominations for the next person to wear the silly hat:
Rosie O’Donnell (she looks good in a hat, and knows how to wave)
Will Smith (the Vatican needs some black attitude)
Martin Scorcese (Last Temptation might count against him though)
Sylvester Stallone (He can mumble!)
Arnold Schwarzenegger (body builder, actor, governor, pope, the perfect progression)






The Queen looks good in a hat and she’s got nothing better to do these days. Otherwise, I think they should replace him with an animatronic character that rides around in the Popemobile and waves. They could get one second hand from Disney to save some money.
True, but why not Caroline Neron (sexy Quebecoise) or Jessica Simpson to bitch slap the Church into the 21st Century? er, I think you may require penitence for your comments about Il Papa.
