My Tomb Or Your Tomb

Pope Benedict has washed and dried the feet of 12 men at a traditional Holy Thursday service commemorating Christ's gesture of humility to his apostles the night before he died. For which each paid 100,000 Euros. They were each also given a night in the Pope John Paul(Soon to be Sainted!) II Suite, as many young boys/nuns as they thought they "could take", and a lovely scrapbook of their pictures taken with the Swiss Guards, and of their time in Vatican City.

A Marine and a Soldier were killed in Iraq, bringing US military deaths to nearly 40 this month, as the army claimed a victory with the killing of a senior al- Qaeda operative in the country. 40-1, way to go guys! At this rate the war will be over by attrition long before 2020.
