The 265th pope has been elected. No word of who he is, yet. (Also, there was black smoke only half an hour ago....)

EDIT: Cardinal Ratzinger of Germany -- Pope Benedict XVI.

Put the tv in the shower and then carry it with you to your meal.

Although, of course, the whole shower bit will cancel lunch and, uh... be an all-around bad idea. And you probably don't have anywhere to plug the tv in if you're going away from your room for a nip :P

It's Ratzinger from Germany. Er. However you spell it.
According to CNN.

Yes. Taking the name Benedict XVI.

For some reason or another the name Benedict makes me giggle. I think I need to seek psychological help. >8D

I think of several things:
1> Monks
2> Eggs
3> Silly names beginning with 'B' X) (...who is Benedict Arnold? ...and why did that name pop first?)

Can I call his holiness Billy-Bob Benedict, or is that blasphemous? Because I think that would fit nicely with #3 on your list. Bwahaha.

I think that *would* be blasphemous. If you said it in a mocking way around people who happen to believe in him. Or even knew who you were referring to.

But still.

Heeee X)
