Friday, April 1, 2005 at 12:00 AM As a follow up, why won't "vatican" officials stop talking smack: Vatican spokesman Joaquin Navarro-Valls said in a statement that the pope, who was being treated at the Vatican, was given cardio-respiratory assistance after his heart failed Thursday afternoon. "This morning the condition of the Holy Father is very serious," the statement said. However, it said that the pope had participated in a 6 a.m. Mass Friday and was "conscious, lucid, and serene."
..So Basically they are saying, yea, he basically died last night, but we brought him back and participated in mass. Problem solved, all is good and swept under the rug...
WTF, over.

Friday, April 1, 2005 at 12:21 AM The Vatican PR typically always denies that the Pope (whoever it happens to be at the time) is doing badly or isn't physically capable of the job. Their line is that the Pope is always doing fine until, well, he's dead. Since it isn't against their neighbor, they don't take the "bearing false witness" thing too seriously. —Ganthet |

Friday, April 1, 2005 at 12:56 AM I'm seeing something about whether black or white smoke is coming out of the smokestack, as a signal that a new pope has been elected, following the death of a pope. I'm not too clear on the details, as it's been since I was 10 years old that it was last done (twice within about a month. Remember Pope John Paul I, anyone?). Sorry. That was a little random, but this thread got me thinking about that. —Dusty TheHick |

Friday, April 1, 2005 at 1:36 AM The smokestack is generally to indicate that the college (as opposed to junior college) of cardinals is deliberating whom to choose as the next pope. 2/3rds of the cardinals have to agree and once the final vote is taken, the anonymous ballots the cardinals use to write their vote on are cast into the fire, thus making the smoke from the smokestack change color. They cast them into the fire to symbolize a kind of "burying the hatchet" of candidates and unity of all the cardinals recognizing the next pope. —Ganthet |

Friday, April 1, 2005 at 4:45 AM oh-for: I do remember! There was a conspiracy theory that someone snuffed the other pope out and there is another prophecy about the next pope to replace this current dying one.....He is supposed to be the epitome of evil and will be like an Anti-Pope I am feeling near death this morning myself. Had a really bad night and today is looking along the same spirit. —hardpathtowalk |

Friday, April 1, 2005 at 5:45 AM There are also prophecy's and rumors that the papel (I think that is the name of the little hat) has 666 in roman numerals on it and that he communes with satan. So the current pope as nice as he is and as good as he is, may already be in communion with the devil. No this is not ment as an offensive post. Please all those who are catholic read this post with an open mind and challenge the dogma's that you have believed for so many years blindly. —dalamar23666 |

Friday, April 1, 2005 at 7:11 AM Speaking of dogmas, I saw the movie Dogma recently(yeah, I know, finally) and really liked it. Very interesting and funny. God IS a woman, and they agreed, and I came up with this theory before I saw the movie. I love Alanis, her first cd rocked(when she was still angry), and the whole going down in the theatre is a deal breaker. There, how's that for tangents. —oh-for |

Saturday, April 2, 2005 at 7:30 PM I heard that too. And I also heard she's living with/married to some guy/producer or something or other. I am very dissapointed that she got her shit together, because I loved the anger in her first album. The latter two, ehh. —oh-for |

Sunday, April 3, 2005 at 1:48 AM Her 'first' album, the one from '95, was fairly goddamn corny and lame.
Now her next album, the one from '98 that no-one bought because it was so damn depressing and bitter, that was a fucking sweet album.
There is a reason why popular art is so shit, and that little bit of alanis morissette history right there is pretty much a snapshot of why. —MajandraFan |

Sunday, April 3, 2005 at 6:27 AM I bought a Sarah MacLau.glin....cd and learned to love every note of it and never bought another. I keep thinking that she creeps me a bit and find it difficult to listen to someone who creeps me but addicted to this cd....and maybe someday in a moment of weakness I will buy another and enlarge my passion for her voice. I have a range of music though. I have Charlotte Church singing English ballads in Soprano and some banjos playing Civil war stuff and then Sarah and some old Rod Stewart, Melanie from the sixties and Eagles etc. Dusty...I still don't tree hug, but Melanie was a poetress worth listening too. "There's a chance peace will come, in your life please buy one"
