So? I’m waiting for someone to complain that he’s wearing winter white during the summer!

If you love B16, you will love this new biography:
Highlighting a little-known personal side of Joseph Ratzinger, Pope Benedict XVI, this book places him in the context of his homeland, Bavaria - a place which the author, Brennan Pursell, has come to know well through extensive travel and study over the last twelve years. Explore the extraordinary brilliance of Pope Benedict's mind and the universality of his vocation within the context of his identity as a simple son of his beloved homeland, Bavaria. Includes color photos and a rare look at a day in the life of the Pope.
Hardcover w/dustjacket, 240 pp
ISBN 1-933271-17-5

The Holy Father is a brilliant man and a good man.
Photogenic he is not.

Buca di Beppo, a chain of “family style” Italian restaurants, has a Pope Room in every location. You can ask for your group to sit there and it has various Pope-related material including a bust of the pontiff. The Buca web site has a drawing of him saying, “Table for XVI please...” :)

No matter how you cut it, it is hypocritical.

Well, he's not
glamorous, which seems to be most folk's idea of 'photogenic'.
He reminds me of a favorite Opa. His eyes are kind.

Do not post Getty images. I am aware of the ban on AP images; are these also banned?

I think these folks who're complaining ought to have to keep 2-3 little weasels in their house for awhile.
Mean nasty quarrelsome things -- their only use is to provide ermine for such as want it.

Thank you so much for posting this information! I have been agonizing over what to buy my father for his birthday. His parents immigrated from Germany - and this looks like one book he would truly enjoy. Thank you!

The Buca web site has a drawing of him saying, Table for XVI please... :) ROFL!!! We have a Buca di Beppo here in Albany and hold our staff Christmas luncheon there every year. Surprisingly good food for a chain restaurant and great atmosphere.

I went once. We weren’t even in the “pope room,” but there were tons of pictures of various pontiffs scattered around. Then as we left we saw the room w/ the bust on the table. Tad creepy.

My favorite is rahmschnitzel though I’ve never been able to make it as good at home as I’ve had in restaurants. There are a lot of receipes online for it. I’m gonna keep trying.

Stupid jerks. This is just an excuse to criticize the Pope and get other fellow wacko lefties to say that the Pope hates animals.
