I’m not in the mood for the Pope.
by pinkagendist
So the little jack-ass is stepping down. I just wish Hitchens were still around to slap him around a bit. At least TDB brought back a very good 2010 article he wrote, you can see it here. Yonks ago I wrote about the Pope for a Spanish paper. I focused mainly on the ‘everyone had to be part of the Hitler Youth‘ line- primordially because a number of Jehovah’s witnesses (some from Ratzinger’s own town), refused to join any Nazi organization. Some paid with their lives. I’m also amused at how Catholic commentators are trying to rewrite history and propose the Pope was the great anti-pedophilia guy of the institution, when in fact, he spear-headed the massive cover-up.
In case you didn’t know: On May 18, 2001, Cardinal Ratzinger, then Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, wrote a letter to the Catholic Bishops on how to handle abuses that were occurring in the Church. It ordered that “cases of this kind are subjected to the pontifical secret” (Houston Voice online, August 29, 2005). That means keep quiet, it also asserted the Church’s right to hold inquiries behind closed doors and keep the evidence confidential. Breaching pontifical secret carries serious penalties.
Anyway… My first flowers of the season are starting to bloom. Someone gave me some stunning azaleas. A friend is separating after a seven year marriage- terribly sad, but I think it’s the right choice in the long-run. We invited him to spend some time here at the house and he can also bring the children for vacation in summer. Things to do ease the transition. I bought myself a box set of Maria Dolores Pradera. A whiskey sour, a little cigar and Pradera sounding through the garden as the weather gets a bit warmer- excellent combination. Sometimes it looks as if the leaves and branches are swaying to the music. I also bought lots of flower seeds- I want flowers year-round. Business isn’t bad. I can’t remember if I mentioned it, but I was offered a partnership in a big interior design firm. A fifty percent partnership, which is scary. If I had a ton of money stashed away (…aah, those were the days), I wouldn’t dream of taking on this sort of responsibility- but as things are, I just have to do it.
I leave you with a funny (real) video of the Pope watching topless acrobats:
And my azaleas
lol – not the best acrobats I’ve ever seen but they do have beautiful bodies.
One question about the partnership offer Pinky. If you accept, won’t that also make you liable for any of the practice’s debts?
Absolutely
that’s why my people are going through all the books and accounts 
Ah! I should have known you’d be canny about the offer. Hope all goes well.
The horrid man goes, and will the next one be any better? Probably not. It was Ratzinger who made the first authoritative pronouncement on my lot (trannies), in 2003. We are foul perverted sinners, as you would expect, but it is the need for the authoritative pronouncement which gets me. It is sad that his going is not good news, but the next one will be worse, and younger.
Still, azaleas. Thank you for cheering me up just a little.
Foul perverted sinners sounds like the name of a book I’d buy
i also could care less about this pope. enjoy this: http://i.imgur.com/ILQ2zQn.jpg xoxoxo, sweet mo

I was trying to think of something to say about The Pope’s impending abdication; but The Pink Agendist sums up my thoughts pretty succinctly.
Congratulations my friend on the partnership offer.
I didn’t know Ratzie loved watching them topless but then again how would he help himself?
Am not a flower person, but they look cute
What’s kinda amusing is I think one of those acrobats is now living in London, as he looks quite a lot like a guy who propositioned me online recently.. and also looks like he’s had one too many face-lifts
If you run into him again, pass my email along
Good riddance to this terrible pope, I say! Don’t let the door hit you on the ass on your way out. On a different note, how do I get those acrobats to do a performance for me?
Congrats on the partnership offer!
I’ve never heard of a pope resigning. Is this common? I thought they held on to the position until well into decomposition.
Is someone blackmailing him?
If I remember correctly, it’s very uncommon and hasn’t happened in something like 600 years. I’m a bit curious about it, for sure. Seems like something from a Dan Brown novel.
It’s very curious, and makes me think something is going on we’re not being told.
I didn’t see any monkey telling you to take this post down… a pity, round 2 would have been something to see
Becoming the leader of millions is a bit like a famous person dying; suddenly you never did anyone wrong. Ever. You didn’t do bad things and learn from them you were just born good and those bad things are just ‘misinterpreted’.
They played footage of those acrobats on one of our news programs last night, with appropriate stifled laughter and immediate cutting to the commercial break. I love living in a secular country
Resting in the garden with the flowers, a drink, cigar and music sounds like a wonderful afternoon, enjoy!

The videos following this post is absolutely HOT and also funny as hell considering how Pope Nazinger is looking at them with that glad eye like looking at a cream filled doughnut
I love how the nuns were taking pictures of the acrobats!!!!!!
They performed shirtless? For the Pope and a bunch of nuns? Was there really not a wardrobe person suggesting that perhaps it would not be appropriate to be half naked for that? They look like Chippendale dancers at Easter mass.
Pretty handsome
I agree. There should always be flowers. Life should be beautiful, and you make it sound like yours always is.
