My Speech at St. Peter’s Square

Some people feel scared when talking to large groups of people. I’ve never had that problem. It’s probably one of the reasons why I was picked to be Pope. Well, that’s just one reason. I’m sure there are hundreds, or thousands, or probably billions of reasons why I was chosen. And I applaud their choice. Well done.

Today, I spoke to over 15,000 people in St. Peter’s Square. It was exhilarating. Most people would be freaking out to speak to so many people, but not me.

To prepare myself, I went backstage and shadowboxed a bit to get into the right frame of mind. I then took a swig of some communion wine to calm down. I said a little prayer and poured out some wine on the ground to respect the memory of Pope John Paul. Much love, much respect.

I think everything went over well. I sure hope nobody smelled my breath. Peace out.

    Sir / Father

    I applaud your Courage in the face of such a task. It is your quiet strength that shall propel your humble servants into the 20th century, someday.

    Your Honor,
    I spoke in front of 400 people this past sunday. I am just a mere protestant minister though...Pope, do you ever get that little taste of vomit in the back of your throat before you speak to a crowd? I do.

    You are rooting for the Phoenix Suns in the NBA playoffs arent you? I mean Suns = Sons = Son of God = Jesus = Your Boss....I just figured it made sense.

    Holy Father:

    I am not a Catholic. I am not even remotely RELIGIOUS. But this blog makes me think that miracles really can happen.

    You rule, Your Holiness.

    Bless me? No! Bless YOU.

    Hoping to hear back...
    Rich.

    Pope, you are awesome. I hope the Catholics have a since of humor about this. So far they have not had one about the crusades, but I think they are coming around.

    God rocks, tell him I said hey, and much love and fear.

    Hey popeski

    Blog on man. Ever get out to parties/nightclubs much? Just want to say I know Italo-Disco was the biggest thing ever for a while there, but there are some pretty great squat/underground parties going on Italia, especially up north, Bologna etc. Don't neglect the good music next time you need to get blinged up, go out and throw down the chips!
