Glurge Overload

It's cuddly Pope Maledict!

Just when you thought the tenth *anniversary* of September 11 and the recent plane crash in Russia had maxed out the global glurge quotient, this comes along.

With a sticker price of €229 ($312 cad) it's unlikely any of the above will be left at public displays of mawkishness.

I was referring to the Tim Minchin video at the link, in which the Poop engages in a little can-can.

And, just in case, I was referring to whether dBO is hinting that she wants me to go and get one of them for her :)

Does he come with a pope mobile? Because if there's no pope mobile, no deal!!

And that robe better be made of real gold!

Since we're talking imaginary friends & fairytales...Papa/papist bear...that's the one that finds things a little too "hot", no?

Wasn't there a video a while back where Benny was clearly intrigued (?) by young dancing boys?

I think this is what you mean, k'in. Shirtless acrobats. Love the nuns.
