Supposedly one Pope made a phone call to someone in a village in Switzerland. When he identified himself as the Pope, the village operator replied “If you’re the Pope, then I’m the Empress of China.”
Reminds me of a story about 60 years old—one snowy day, Charles and Andrew sneaked out of Buckingham Palace, and proceeded to have a snowball fight with some neighborhood boys. Eventually the British guards on the palace noticed, and grabbed some of the boys, including Charles and Andrew. He demanded to know who they were. Charles declared, “I am Charles, Prince of Wales!” Andrew went next, “I’m the Duke of York!” The third boy, in his best Cockny accent, responded after a few moments, “I’m wif me mates, gov. I’m the Archbishop of Canterbury!”
Liz, I want to talk to you about this whole Anglican women priest thing……………….Quite frankly, recognizing women for their fullest potential is, well, it’s making us look bad.

I love that Francis has an old-school clamshell cellphone. He actually talks to people instead of just updating his Facebook page.
