Interesting...when am I going to die? (Ruling out the variables of murder and manslaughter)

She knew too much. Or summat...

... Excellent.

That's one of mine (and Handrejka's probably too) hits for 2011 down the drain... Yep, always around this time of the year too.

Trust you to take a break when you did! Rumours are emerging that the Pope may well have farted this morning as he ate breakfast. More details are to follow.

I think most 83 year olds are expected to die 'soon'. He could die in his sleep tonight, or he could live to his 90th birthday. Procedures were in place for the Queen Mother's funeral for decades before she finally snuffed it.

I can't wait. We only have about 6 weeks to go then. I thought he was supposed to die in 2012...the College of Cardinals then elect a black Pope...the world then ends... Can't remember who was spouting that garbage (not including myself).

President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on this day in 1963.

When you read what the Pope actually said, it is not really all that momentous.

Happy Birthday, MiB.

I was there earlier. Left a little surprise in an unattended bag... (That was a joke)

I did hear that it used to belong to saint - so I suppose that makes up for it...

I read that wrong. I was expecting an owl committing a sex crime...

He keeps the kids entertained.

Freed Ah. I daresay the 'super injunction' may explain why everything was quiet on the media front.

I sat beside Jordan Findlay for a term in my S6 English class in 2005. (He is apparently an up and coming golfer).

You do know that there are other threads though?

Rev. Billy Graham.

For one reason or another I kind of guessed that...

I would have stuck to the plan of attempting to unseat Lib Dem MPs. If Woolas lost his seat for lying during in his campaign, every Lib Dem should lose their seat. Yes, we all expect MPs to lie and break promises, but the Lib Dems have just taken the piss since the election.

Student protesters. How is smashing the place up going to convince the government they deserve funding?

How old was Mary when she gave birth? Older than 6, but she would still have been deemed a chav teen mother in this world...

I am friends now, and am enjoying a nice debate. The Diana fans are out in force, so I have been having fun with them (although possibly not a good idea as its not anonymous this time round).

Nazi War Criminal Michael Seifert, known as the 'beast of Bolzano', has died in Italy aged 86.

Bookies don't elect the pope, so their opinion is not particularly relevant. If Pope Benny hangs on another two years he may render Arinze ineligible, as only cardinals < 80 y/o may be chosen. Thats what I originally thought too, but it turns out that there is no upper age limit on being elected Pope - only an upper age limit on elective Cardinals.
