Is it just me...

or the fact that the late pontiff, John Paul II
gets his own (albeit partial) solar eclipse for his funeral day is kind of creepy? After all, this is the man about whose job my family often says: 'he believes that the whole universe is a conspiracy--in his favor'...
The link above has the details for where the eclipse is most visible--it's on the Southern hemisphere, where during JPS's papacy the Catholic Church has flourished so much. Old Europe'd better watch...
