Too Pooped to Pope

Well, Pope Benedict XVI is hanging up his red Prada slippers and starting his retirement career March 1.

And, I don't blame him.  He's tired. For years, those slippers have pinched his toes, the hats he has had to wear were so heavy, he could hardly hold up his head and they gave him stooped shoulders and he is sick and tired of wearing a dress.

He's looking forward to his new career as a cowpoke, although he's not too sure about the cowboy boots and the spurs.  But, he does love his cowboy hat.  He's hoping he will have a chance to sing a duet with Willie Nelson, too, and is taking guitar lessons for the occasion.

So, let's all wish him a long and happy retirement.

Stay tuned.

I loved it Harrison. You are good for a laugh. Everyone should get to retire is my belief and I am glad I got to try that hat.
