Oh dear, have I missed something? Is Francis ailing? This is the second strip to alluding to an ending, and he didnāt give the Mass at Easter, right?
As my long-gone grandmother used to joke, especially on her deathbed, āhome is where the harp is" and Iām not absolutely sure she wasnāt, in some small way, also alluding to the beer!
I donāt think real Francis has ruled out retiring (and yeah, Benedict made a point of not being elsewhere. That helps weed out chance of anything being misconstrued as alternate location or competition or undermining current pope).I think Francis would retire if he felt he wasnāt up to the demands of the job, but would be especially reluctant to do so while Benedict is still alive, to avoid the scenario of having TWO (!) living ex-popes.

Someone else commented recently elsewhere: A 100 year old woman said āIāll bet all my friends think I went to Hellā.

Iām missing something. Why would Francis go back to Argentina? Benny didnāt go back to Germany.
