i love the antiquated ceremonies, that's about as far as my involvement/jubilation about the papal enclave goes...

though i'd love to see smoke billowing out of the capital dome everytime a law passes, everytime a congressional wrist is slapped, everytime a common neck is snapped... poetic, truly...

Even though I may not agree with certain types of religion, I still find it fascinating. My denomination is pretty close to Catholicism, so I'm definately watching.

Thumbs down I was...

watching the 10th Anniversary of the Murrah Building bombing ceremony, UNTIL the national networks interupted...I consider that disrespectful, Especially since OUR local affiliates are all OKC based

I agree, it's not appropriate to break in for that, esp. in your area.

What gets me...why do the Cardinals get to vote for the Pope...the Red Sox beat 'em four straight in the Series?

Why it's great the rest of the world can enjoy a new Pope, in OKC there's something of more importance than that...Remembering the ones lost 10 years ago.
