Well, technically they were two different stories. One was a fascinating story about bubble wrap
The book, Why He's a Saint was written by Monsignor Slawomir Oder to support his campaign to get Pope John Paul II
Okay, I'm not trying to be judgemental or anything, but the Pope whacking himself with a belt and taking it on vacation may make him a bit kinky, but doesn't elevate him to sainthood status in my eyes.
But back to bubble wrap. The only reason the story jumped out at me was that it was making a big deal about the popular packing material reaching the half century mark. It hit me that I am 51 and am therefore a year older than bubble wrap. So instead of people saying that I am older than dirt, they can say I am older than bubble wrap and cushion the blow to my feelings.
That was a long way to go for that pun and I apologize. It just popped into my head.
Somebody should hit me with a belt. No wait, that would make me saint material. Which makes me wonder if any of the New Orleans Saints
The natural response to that question would be, "Is the Pope Catholic?"
And yes, I am going to hell.
