Last Rites

It appears that G-d is calling John Paul the Second home soon. Last Rites have been administered, a sign that the end is near. When he passes from the mortal plane another bit of a past era will pass with him. One by one the giants of the last days of the Cold War are passing away. Soon that time will be but a shallow memory to the living, and legend to those yet born.

I wish I could have resumed blogging on a happier note.

Update: Some info on Last Rites, and annointing in general, can be found here.
