Are You Happy Now, Charles?

I normally don't do current events, but I think these are worth a mention.

Pope John Paul II, who headed the Roman Catholic Church for 26 years, died on April 2 of septic shock and cardio-circulatory collapse, but had been struggling with declining health for many years. His funeral was held on April 8, and his body will buried in the grotto of St. Peter's Basilica, where Pope John XXIII lay before he was brought up onto the main floor of the basilica.

The next day, April 9, Prince Charles married Camilla Parker Bowles, his long-time love, in a civil wedding ceremony at a register office. Then off to Windsor Castle for a blessing ceremony attended by 750 VIP guests.

Que sera sera.
