Perhaps, but for $30 I can give you thier phone numbers.

They'd be pretty ripe (old) by now, don't you think?

If that's true, it's an unofficial rule.  And of course, until John Paul II, all the Popes had been Italian, going back to before America even existed, let alone became a world power.

Actually, that is not true...

In fact, there was a German pope about 1000 years ago.

I didn't say all the Popes were Italian. I said there hasn't been a non-Italian pope since before America existed as a nation, which is true -- I think the last non-Italian was Alexander, the Spanish Borgia pope from the early 1500s, who was quite the studmonkey:

"He no sooner donned the red [cardinal's] cap than he doffed it, together with the rest of his raiment, for a marathon romp with a succession of women whose identities are unknown to us and may well have been unknown to him" -- William Manchester, A World Lit Only By Fire

Sorry for the misunderstanding; agreed on that point.

But then again, there has never been a Prophet of our church that has not been born in America...

I don't see how this disenfranchises the Pope any.

I want Vanozza dei Catanei's. She was apparently quite the hottie, "una bella cosa a vedere."

Ahhh - Vanozza dei Catanei, the mother of four of Pope Alexander VI's illegitimate children. Her number will cost you 75 bucks.

On second thought, I think I'll pass. I already have una bella cosa a vedere who's worth almost twice that amount.

I'm having trouble with the translation - sans babelfish. My guess is: beautiful hot thing?

Vedere means see. I didn't know. I feel so ashamed.
