"TWO MITARS UP!"

Pope Benedict XVI has given his blessing to the upcoming CBS TV-movie Pope John Paul II, which stars Jon Voigt and premiered at the Vatican this past week. "Viewing this film has reopened my gratitude to God for providing us with a pope both so human and so spiritual," said the pontiff after the screening. "I welcome the distribution of this film." Benedict then smited the Vatican vendor who skimped on the popcorn butter.
