Hey, good news! Apparently, the strike is over. I assume this is true because I no longer see the old dudes sitting in their tent with signs on my way to work. The signs, the tent, and the old dudes are all gone. I suppose this could mean that someone was hired to bump them off, but I don't like to think about that. I prefer to think that their solidarity, combined with my daily "Fist Raise of Affirmation" truly brought down the corrupt bigwigs of wherever the heck they worked. Way to go, guys.
Did you know that Popes can name themselves? Seriously, after they become Pope they get to choose their name. It makes me wonder if Pope John Paul was a Beatles fan. But everyone picks such boring names. If I were Pope, I'd be Pope Batman the Destructor.
My Last Comic Standing win got a HUGE amount of Drake press. You can check it out here. Be sure to listen to my amazingly eloquent sound bite on gathering material.

You've already got a celebrity mentality, Tim. You kind of draw your lips together in a contemptous scowl and cock your head back ever-so-slightly at the end of the clip. No time for the common man and his free press, huh?!
Good eye Jake. I like the little smirk. As if to say "Yeah that's how I did it, and if you don't like it blow yourself, it's not like you'd come up with anything decent even if you know my method". Good non-verbal communication skills. Those dancing bee's have nothing on you. I'd originally intended to say some more snarky things, but it looks like I have 5 minutes to find pants and get to my college so I'll leave you with my pope name:
The Legendary Popi Wan Kenobi.
There'd be movies about my papalcy, all of them blockbusters. The first one? Pope Fiction.
I'm a bit jealous of the pope names. I don't think even if I was Catholic that I could be a pope anyway, but it seems like a fun game and I wanna play! :)
I dub myself "Pope Ope Bo Bope" (Banana Fanna Fo Fope...)
No matter if anyone ever hears my excellent pope name and regarless of my pope status (I mean lack there of), history will remember me as "Corie The Great".
And I will be very pope-ular.(sorry, couldn't resist a pun after "Scotty 2 Hotty's").

Actually, the pope can choose any name except "Peter." I think that's because Peter II is sort of presumptuous.
"Ohhhh! Hey look at me! I'm the new pope and I think I'm just as good as the guy who guards the gates heaven and was the founder of Catholicism! Out of my way, jerk!"
If I had to choose a pope name, I would take Pope Leo XV to throw everyone off (there have been 13 Leo's). Or instead I might take Pope ?uestlove. Yeah. That would be sweet.

Fun Fact: Pope J.P. Tha Duce's real first name was Karol! Maybe he just switched his name to avoid being beat up by some of the older cardinals at recess... or to avoid being mistaken for that guy from "In The Heat Of The Night."

I'd have to go with Pope Aquanetta.
I could probably work out a killer ad campaign with the hair care product.

Cammeo just got a popecard from Italy (tr: a postcard with the pope on it). This led to a rousing pope discussion. Cammeo decided her name would be Popetta Candy Suga Mamma. Jason was not very participatory and copped out, so we dubbed him Popahontas Poparazzi.
And a good time was had by all
