Post script to last night: at least one person in the world adores me and I'm not on fire. So, I've got two things going for me.

Catholicism WOW!
Among the many great things about being Catholic, here. The Cardinal Ratzinger Fan Club. Be aware, kiddies, the Sacred Inquisition still exists; it's no longer called the Sacred Congregation for the Universal Inquisition, but rather the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger (NOT Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, you bastards), who presided over today's funeral Mass for the Pope, is the head of the Congregation. "Putting the smackdown on heresy since 1981." Hee hee.

Commerce!
Yesterday was a good day for doing my bit to fuel the engine of capitalism, i.e. buying "useless" consumer goods. I bought the new album by Reel Big Fish, We're Not Happy 'Til You're Not Happy, which is not at all, as Daddy Dylweed ignorantly asserted, "crappy," but actually rather A-W-E-S-O-M-E. I also bought Anakin's and Obi-Wan's lightsabers from Revenge of the Sith, weapons that also serve, respectively, as the lightsaber Luke carries in A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back and that which "Ben" Kenobi wields in A New Hope. And now, lists!
