I think I expected this.

The busy little bees in Rome are making it so that very time we step away from the computer to get something to eat or get some exercise and fresh air…

Perhaps the biggest threat the writers and editors of this site face is starvation.

With gazillions of journalists, activists and colleagues in Rome to cover the whole thing, the biggest problem is not going to be getting information. Indeed, with the Charamsa affair, it is clear that clever on-the-ground cloak n’ dagger investigative journalism is soon going to be a lost art. No need for those skills when the people with the scandalous secrets post them all to Facebook and Twitter… and then call a press conference.

It does take some of the fun out of things though, I must say.

As I said to WUWTS’ IT guy on Saturday night, I was going to create a Facebook and Twitter page for us, honestly I was. But then a brazen homosexual who had been a “conservative” in the CDF since the Ratzinger era called a press conference to tell the world that he’d been a functioning hyppocrite since 2003…

Anyway…

I’ve got, I think by now, about five posts by our collaborators waiting in the queue to be edited and posted, we’ve had an explosion of comments from Ann Barnhardt’s many friends and relations, and I’m sure all of them are squeaky clean, polite and uplifting, so naturally do not expect to have to spend too much time in the comment moderation with my rolled-up newspaper.

And then there’s the rest of the stuff…

I do hope everyone had a lovely Sunday and is ready for the games to begin.

Strap in, because if the weekend was any indication of the direction we’re taking, it’s going to be a non-stop thrill ride,

right. down. to the. bottom.
