Everybody Awaits a Puff Of White Smoke Now...?!?

Oh, Lee... Can you See? 
By The Light in the Sky 
How Proudly We've Sailed 
To Evangelize The Four Corners...!
All right, I admit to having absolutely no idea 
what the Holy See's national anthem sounds like! 
But this is their flag!


And so, while the Christian Science Monitor, Boston Globe, WND (whatever in blue blazes those three letters stand for, anyway?) and others entertain ideas, theories and fantasies about seeing elected an American Pope for the first time EVER...

Let's do as we do best around here: let's do as everyone else (except 115 particular individuals) is doing in Vatican City itself: let's relax, hang out and await the word on who will have bestowed upon him the heavy mantle of filling out the shoes of ''Petrus Romanus''...!

It sure ain't gonna be me...! 
Not that it couldn't have been - 'cause it could have, it sure could have... if, well, the winds of life had taken me that way...!

But anyway...!

After three puffs of black smoke oozed out of a Sistine Chapel stack, it became clear that a mere 48 hours were not enough for the Conclave to gather up enough votes for a single candidate to don the mantle of leader of the faith for 1.2 billion Roman Catholics worldwide.  When white smoke emerges from that chimney, then we will know that the 266th pope has been decided on - not before that.  The 115 cardinals upon which the monumental task of picking just the right man for the job all know the weight of the role that awaits to be filled; as they all know the medieval prophecy that comes attached to it.  If this be the final Pope and unseen calamities await both the Church and the whole world during his papacy - let it be! For all it means, then, is that Armageddon is just around the corner and then, after the Final Reckoning, Judgment Day, we can all relax with the angels...
Hey - like we already do, right here, on the lackadaisical blog!  :-)

Amen to that!

Aww...!
