Is anyone reading The Borowitz Report? Daily satire, what more could a person want?  Thank goodness for Borowitz, Bartcop and The Daily Show, my steady supply of funny.

The pope used a lift to descend from the plane and a trolley to move along a red carpet laid out for him. The queen walked beside him. The pontiff looked frail as he waved to the crowd but appeared to be holding up well after the 2-hour flight from Rome. Is it just me, or is anyone else having a hard time imagining the pope being "whirlwindy" at all?  How does one "whirlwind" in a trolley, anyways?  And I thought a "whirlwind" would involve more than one stop, as well, but I could be wrong in that.
