    CNN is reporting there is a new Pope. I guess he has to accept.

    How long before the revealing of who it is? I hope it isn't that orthodox German guy.

    Whoever it is,they're probably getting into their new papal clothes.
    Then there has to be a formal announcement and then we will get to see who it is.

    Wow, that was pretty damn fast. I remember reading yesterday that it would take a few days because they didn't want it to look like they were acting to quickly.

    Didn't some 'see into the future dude' predict this would be the last pope before Revelations begins? Will this help me save money on car insurance WITHOUT switching to Geico?

    I'm predicting that it will be the German Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger.

    St. Peter's square is going INSANE. The people are running down the streets of Rome trying to get there. There's a ton of yelling and screaming, sirens going off in the background, craziness.

    Pope Norm I
