16. chelydra wrote: Funny you should say that... I was raised to regard Vatican even more than Kremlin as centre of global conspiracy of evil... By the way, should Sinead O'Connor be invited to visit Benedict and let him wash her feet?
17. marky wrote: ditto on that likewise here. As regards o' connor. A friend of mine was her boyfriend for a while a few yrs back! Small world eh? No i dont think she should get any special dispinsation self proclaimed priest for a while gone through numerous phases. Bit

21. chelydra wrote: Debray: You had personal experience of the Freemason Conspiracy!? Wow! I didn't think that was possible. Doing conspiracy theorizing on facebook sounds like a nightmare - let's do it here instead.
22. chelydra wrote: Marky - of course Sinead O'Connor is one of the great crackpots of all time, but she always turns out to be right doesn't she? She's a crackpot in STYLE, not CONTENT, of what she says/believes.
23. chelydra wrote: Debray: I didn't say I believed Vatican was root of all evil, just that I was raised to believe that. In the 1980s I came to think Catholics might be the only practicing Christians (Romero & Maryknolls). But Vatican wasn't on their side.

28. chelydra wrote: Now Stan Gooch and Sinead O'Connor â€” THAT would be be one astounding couple... or even just the two of them at a pub, shooting the breeze...

30. chelydra wrote: Ever hear S O'C's "Daddy I'm Fine"? Sexiest song ever recorded (especially the choral version, which I think might be on YouTube)

35. chelydra wrote: oh - the "Haunted" guy! Another recently-discovered favorite song. (Much of her best stuff is not on her albums, it turns out)

44. chelydra wrote: ...Fifty years from now, let's see where their reputations end up. I expect it'll be like Pat Boone and Little Richard - a complete flip. One is a talented, charismatic, photogenic opportunist. The other is 'the real thing', wildly original, a genius.
