Haha, I like the newsspeak vernacularization of "pallium" as "shawl." I suppose cope = poncho and zucchetto = beanie?

Speaking of palliums -or is it pallia-I see that Papa BXVI changed his own to a much smaller one. Aww! I loved the larger, more ancient looking one :) , but I guess it was more uncomfy. NTL congrats 2 all the recipients of the pallium-pallia. Love n prayers.

Also very cool to see His Beatitude Patriarch Bartholemew seated next to His Holiness BXVI during part of the mass.

Congratulations and best wishes to all our new archbishops!

The new pallium looks great on His Holiness! Love our Papa!!!
