Did Rogers get the LeoXIV.com domain?

I mean, the new pope was head of the Augustine order, the St. Augustine connection ... a sign? :-)

An added benefit of this choice - in a world going "WTF?!" over Trump/MAGA - amid the global dislike of America because of Trump, now have an American in a more powerful position as a world leader, and one who'll call out the anti-Christian GOP/MAGAts who purposefully violate Christian principles on a daily basis.

In every way, Pope Leo is the polar opposite of Trump. Hopefully, that'll earn America some goodwill back.

TOP SECRET EYES ONLY - Reported THREAT LEVEL III incursion (Super Serious!)

May 8, 2025
Nuuk, Greenland

I observed Greenland's XXXXXX ice shelf moving 1/32nd of an inch towards America during the month of April and therefore posing an immediate threat to the United States.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Immediate invasion/occupation to secure Greenland from attacking America.

Signed,

Agent Vance ... J D Vance (they wouldn't let me visit with locals we'd given MAGA hat props to wear during a photo op!)

(PS - also, some sea lions appeared to flip me the flipper!)

OMG. LMAO! What? They're going to have some machine to shave and measure gold shavings from Krugerrand or something for the miniscule number of people who do so they can pay their $10.83 at Walmart?

As if most people have silver and gold laying around, anyway. An average Missourian isn't going to be spending $2-3000+ for an ounce to keep in their dresser drawer. In this day and age, if the average person wants to invest in gold or silver they'll do it by buying into an ETF.

Francis refused to wear the ruby slippers or live in the papal palace, choosing instead orthopedic shoes and a simple room in the Vatican guest house. Described as soft spoken and humble, it wouldn't be surprising if Leo does the same.

"Robert Francis Prevost was born at Mercy Hospital in Chicago on September 14, 1955, the son of Louis Marius Prevost and Mildred Martnez."

Betcha the cardinals elected him as a foil to Trump, who has none of the qualities Christ taught, and is everything Christ said NOT to be.

Yet another example of where GOP/MAGA priorities lie; with the wealthy, not the other 95% of Americans.

He sounds like a great pick. Described as a multilingual missionary priest who worked with the poor.

And the new pope is an American!

(I hope Rogers has his Network Solutions page ready to register his name)

The article says the husband tried fighting it off.

Or was his oar pushing her closer to the alligator's mouth? :-)

(Expect alligators to be in fresh water anywhere in Florida)

We can assume the top 5 had names that begin with T and end with P.

I was asking for predictions for who the conclave will pick as the next pope.

I like Tagle. Very much in Francis' mold, which the Catholic Church needs if they're going to survive the 21st Century.

His mother said, "It was a massive deception, what [Trump] did," she said. "He's a liar."

Not a secret, Mrs. Rey. It's a well known fact.

Another case of FAFO ...

Sounds like you're Goatman

Turns out there might be a more prosaic answer: Clint Eastwood's 1979 classic Escape From Alcatraz was shown on a South Florida PBS station the night before. (Trump was at Mar-a-Lago for most of the weekend.) ...

Many of his first term aides said Trump went with the last thing someone whispered in his ear (or saw on television, apparently).

A surprise could emerge on the balcony after the white smoke clears.

I expect it'll be a cardinal in Francis' mold ... someone with longtime pastoral experience, not just Vatican administration.

The irony is strong on this one!

BillJohnson, Didn't you Join the Navy knowing gays aren't allowed, lie that you were not gay, and then got kicked out for being gay?

Touche!

I have more stories about Goodfellas from my Brooklyn experience, but my ever-loving wife is summoning me. Here's the original book (worth a read):

PS - I'd love to hear those stories sometime!

I'll tell you how I (probably) got an FBI file in my early 20's as a mob entertainer LOL

Thanks for the rec! I'm a voracious reader.

Years ago, my aunt called from her place in Long Island City telling me my uncle had asked my teenage cousin where he got the watch and wad of money he saw him with. Cousin Russel told him he'd gotten a job. "Where?," my uncle asked.

Turned out he was running bags of money around for a captain out of the the Bergin Hunt and Fish Club (Gotti). My aunt said my uncle was still kicking Russel's ass a couple weeks later LOL!

PS - Several of the houses on my suburban paper route were owned and occupied by made guys and their families. Never realized it until seeing a USA Today headline about the Justice Dept indicting most of them. "Ah, so THAT's why Mr XXXXX was home during the day so much! *face-palm." LOL

So, the new Canadian prime minister visited the WH today. Check out this liar who wore a devil's smile during their WH chat. No wonder no world leaders trust Trump:

When the new Canadian prime minister arrived at the Oval Office on Tuesday morning to meet with the American president, he appeared to be walking into a lion's den. But it turned out to be a house cat he found there.

"Canada is a very special place to me," President Trump purred at the top of the meeting. "I know so many people that live in Canada. My parents had relatives that lived in Canada, my mother in particular."

This was somewhat surprising, since he had just spent months growling about how he would like to gobble up Canada and turn it into the 51st state.

"I love Canada," Mr. Trump added.

It was a decidedly different tone from the one he had used just moments earlier in a post on Truth Social, when he blasted Canadians as a bunch of freeloaders who couldn't survive without the United States. He posted this just as the new Canadian prime minister, Mark Carney, was arriving at the White House.

We had a copy of Henry Hill's "The Wise Guy Cookbook: My Favorite Recipes From My Life as a Goodfella to Cooking on the Run." Never used it, but it was fun to see in the kitchen every time I walked in! A couple of years ago I gave it to a visiting childhood friend who ogled it. His Sicilian grandfather taught me how to play bocci ball as a kid ... and where I learned a couple of Italian cuss words too LOL :-)

Like Ronald Reagan did.
