    My apologies for the error in the subject line. It should, of course, be
    "Pope".


    No, no.. I just thought you were thinking of the inventor of the
    "Mass-O-Matic" 🙂

    Y'know, I used to take it very personally, too. I used to think, jesus! What
    do they think I am? Do they think I'm an idiot or something? "I got it
    already! Move on!" I'd rail at the tube. Then one day I realized it wasn't
    for me.

    They didn't care if I got it or not. They didn't care if I sat there all day
    watching the same thing over and over. They didn't know I was alive, so it
    made no difference to them.

    Bummer. That meant I would have to change the channel.

    LOL LOL LOL... thanks for the laugh. 🙂

    I thought maybe Ron Popeil was the third to go and you were notifying us
    of the fact. ;-)

    <tongue in cheek>Had me worried at first; I thought Ron Popeil had died and
    we would no longer have his great inventions and infomercials.

    Peace on you.

    On a brighter note, Jerry Falwell continues to hang in there. Since the
    pope no longer needs them, channel those prayers for recovery to Jerry.

    Timothy Leary?

    I wondered what had happened to Jerry Falwell - I guess there will be a lot
    of stories upsurged -- Michael Jackson, Charlie & Camille; Terry Schiavo's
    autopsy -

    Watching CNN off and on all day (not by choice) . What a crock of US [censored].

    We are free to ignore you, why don't you just ignore us? Is America great

    Terry Schiavo body was cremated. Why would an autopsy have been
    needed, anyway?

    Falwell and the pope both generated controversy and opposition, as well
    as loyal support from their followers, during their careers. It will
    be interesting to see whether obituary writers and media coverage treat
    them similarly. I've always found the notion that only good should be
    spoken of the dead a cowardly cop-out when applied to controversial
    people. -aem

    Whooooooooa , aren't you all a 'wee bit' defensive?

    Simply commenting on the massive media coverage that seemingly has
    transcended all other news stories.

    CNN is transmitted around the world and is based in the US. Why the
    stupid, repetitive, repetive, repetive questions - sometimes they are
    informative, sometimes it's overkill.

    Just an observation.

    CNN is stupid and repetitive about everything, not just celebrity
    deaths. The major broadcast networks have been adding to their
    stockpiles of obit footage about the pope for years because he hasn't
    been well for a long time. It will take a while for them to broadcast
    all of it.

    He was a tough old bird. Now he's up there, with Col. Sanders.
