It's not exactly my best picture, but it's the one my publicist sent out. He said that it makes me look young and merry.

  3. Dear Holy Father,

    I almost spilled myself onto the computer keyboard yesterday when I saw this picture of you. I thought that was damn funny. But I was also a little freaked out. I thought, "Dude, seriously?!" Then I guess it's really cold, so you are excused. Perhaps you might wanna try a white papal beret next time. It's more hip.

    Sincerely,
    A cup of coffee

  4. Dear Mr. Pope,
    You look like a "right jolly old elf". Santa would be proud. Just look at that merry twinkle in your eye! Please tell Jesus I said Happy Birthday.

  9. Your Holiness,

    Sorry to tell you, but...your publicist lied. You don't look young in that photo. You don't look merry in that photo. BURN IT.

  11. I thought they buried John XXIII with that hat. Did you forget 'Thou shalt not steal,' Bennie?

  12. i don't understand why they put you in such a pagan hat. i would rather you wear a long flowing robe and grow a beard if youre going to dress up for the holidays.

  13. That's not really the most flattering angle for your nose. If you call Lancome, they have some cream that will work wonders on your crows feet. Are you sure your publicist isn't really working for Billy Graham?

  14. The Grinch is exactly dead on. I'm sorry, Papa Joe, but this one is a no go. Mount Krumpet all the way...

  15. Is this why so many believe that you or the next reigning pope may be the antichrist? You look like a demon from hell. Tbird
