Guest IYG Posted March 26, 2005 The BBC news website is now reporting that the Pope has sent a "special blessing" to Prince Rainier. What do you think he said: "sooner you than me?" Maybe he asked him to tell him what it's like on the other side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Death List Observer Posted March 26, 2005 According to the palace, Rainier III continues to rapidly deteriorate despite intensive medical efforts. I believe the DeathList will come to regret ignoring Rainier's name for this year's list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted March 27, 2005 goota laugh at this one..the Pope blessed Prince Rainier today apparentely..why not wait a few more days because theyll b oth be standing outside the pearly gates together i reckon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest windsor Posted March 27, 2005 Apparently Rainier's internal organs which were failing are now stabilising. There is still a chance he might die i suppose. If not he could at least abdicate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grim_Rita 4 Posted April 2, 2005 Would two deaths in one day be a first for the Deathlist? I think back when Dudley Moore and Milton Berle died in 2002 that was the same day. Anyway DeathList doesn't have both Rainier and the Pope! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrunoBrimley 86 Posted April 2, 2005 I think back when Dudley Moore and Milton Berle died in 2002 that was the same day. Anyway DeathList doesn't have both Rainier and the Pope! Ah but this is where you are right and wrong all at the same time. You see on this day as the news of The Pope passing reaches his faithful in New York City it is true, it is a Rainier day than we've had for at least a week. So in conclusion a Rainier Pope on the same day. (and of course he was a rainier Pope when he spoke in the Boston Commons area years back on a rainy day as compared to his New York City Central Park sunny day appearance). All a matter of how you choose to look at it. Okay, okay! I'm leaving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tuber Mirum 125 Posted April 5, 2005 The German photo magazines without actually saying "he is dead" are talking as though Rainier were already gone. Probably they had a deadline and were pretty sure he would die before the edition hit the streets. But he didn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
