Well, my (Great) Godfather passed away.
He went in for a minor surgery on his knee and died of a scab gone awry.
His dying wish was that if something happened to him that the next Pope to be chosen be: ANGELO SCOLA (ITALIAN), BORN NOV. 7, 1941
He wanted the world to be led by Pope Scola (pronounced as Pope se cola) and not Coca-Cola.
It is probable that this was a factor in being called to the pearl gates to talk. However, being that he hardly ever joked about such things it would be nice if everyone thought of the possibilities and laughed as that is something he would have appreciated - people finding enjoyment from his humor - though it be extremely rare/infrequent.
Given that I have had far too much bad news this year and everyone is going into the great beyond, I just wanted to share this with you and a bit of wisdom that is becoming quite apparent this year.
Reconcile with your friends and loved ones for they may not be here tomorrow. You will be glad you settled your differences.
This brings my tally up to 2 friends, a Grandfather, and a Godfather for the year and NO Weddings. So I suppose that the addage that when you attend more funerals than weddings you can now consider yourself old is coming true.
Enjoy every day - and pray for Pope Scola since it was a dying wish.
May Guild Wars be all that you dreamed and more.
