P-pe of pop

I was almost OK with the week long wall to wall coverage, I was barely OK when I saw that they lowered the flags half mast in the Federal Court! in Boston, I was patiently OK with the obsession about this story on bloghead, but I had to draw the line somewhere. And here is where I would like to draw that red line. Below is a photo I took today in front of the conservative Congregation Kehillath Israel in Brookline, MA. The flags are lowered in honor of the pontiff.

Let�s just say that right about now Peter who had two thousands years to do tshuvah is lecturing the rookie that he should have figured it out and worn kipa sruga. He is also showing the polish padre who is the real boss up there. Yehi Ha Melech!
