Enquiring minds have been clamoring for news of JPII!
First there was news of the Pope everywhere, and then all of a sudden nothing! A huge news vacuum; the world goes from hanging on to every word about his condition to nothing! How are we supposed to take this? What was happening? Were the Pope’s peeps hiding something?
Well finally today a news story appeared! The Vatican released the Pope’s new video. It’s not up to par with his “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” video, but true fans will love it. To quote wire service report, it’s “the pontiff speaking a few words in a husky voice….seated during a Mass …the small chapel in his hospital suite.”
But rumors abound. Some sources say the Pope left this earth about a year ago and the staff has been using stunt doubles and old videos to cover for him.
Others say that’s not true at all, but stated that the Holy Father was just down after being kicked off American Idol, and decided to keep a low profile for a while. The presence of the video makes that story seem plausible, since JPII wants to please his fans and he likely released the video to do just that.
Still others say that he has been totally engrossed in watching the coverage of the Michael Jackson trial and has not left the TV since it started. Larger room service orders of KFC and beer give plausibility to that story!
I’ll guess we’ll just have to stand by.
