I wonder what they are planning on doing with it? Scary to think and it makes me sad.

He was such an amazing man! I love this goofy picture of him!

Was reading this paperback years ago The Final Conclave...sure seems strange that when the pope passes, at some point they knock him in the head with a silver hammer and ask him if he's dead. Wonder if anyone ever goofed? Got sent down to one of the lower levels of purgatory...or maybe just got sent to clean the nun's john over in Florence or some place. Wondered at the time, too, if the Beatle's song was about their silver hammer...bang! bang! Maxwell's silver hammer la-la la-de-toe!
