This is why I stick with being atheist, I'm the universal offender.
I find this statement highly amusing this morning as I realized this morning that ND and Pope Benny share a birthday.
There's something important there.
Also, the Papal Visit is causing much mirth in the morning when listening to NPR. My favorite from this morning...
NPR:
"....President Bush met with Pope Benedict XVI at Anders (Andrews?) Air Force Base, where the Pope was greeted with a 21-gun salute....
Me: THEY SHOT HIM???
Wait, does that mean it's Drew's birthday today? HAPPY DAY!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NOISEDESIGN!!!
Happy Birthday, NoiseDesign!!!
Happy Birthday, NoiseDesign!
Happy Birthday, ND!
(also, the Pope [it's because of you I get the day off tomorrow!], and my niece, Molly who turns 9 today)
Campus looks really lovely for the Pope's visit. If you can get close enough to see it -- which today means resident students and law school folks, so the Secret Service can run the dogs all over campus looking for bombs.
Roads are closing around campus at 3 p.m., so getting out of here today is going to be one Mell of a Hess, as my mother would say.
Happy Birthday ND! (And Cybervixen-who-changed-her-name, but she's never around any more, sob sob whine)
Happy Birthday, ND!!!
The Eddie Izzard concert was fabulous! I'll give a complete report later today because I'm already running late, as usual.
Happy Birthday, ND! Hope it's a year filled with amazing things! And a vacation!
Happy Birthday NoiseBob DesignPants!
Were I there for your party, I would present you with a giant Pope hat.
Alas, someone else will have to see to that.
