Thank you and Jim looks pretty good too, does he not? He is a whole six months my senior.

I absolutely adore Pope Benedict VXI. I loved Pope John Paul II but B-16 has captured my heart. I think you're right: he's truly a blessing.

Yes, both you and Jim look great in that picture...

I watched Pope Benedict yesterday, I think it was, or maybe the day before, cannot exactly remember when, and found the service very compelling and found Benedict thriving in his position as Pope...I understand he is quite the scholar, and had looked forward to his own retirement, a time when he could read and study at his own pleasure...being called to be Pope, is really the last thing he wished for, as I understand it...but he has truly proved to be quite remarkable, so early in his role as Pope...I hope he has many more years, as the Pope...

Do you know how old the Pope is?...surely he is quite a senior citizen, and his age, whatever it is, is irrelevant to his abilities as Pope...I ask his age, only for information...
