Does the Pope know (or care) how much CO2 is being released from that boat’s engine for his jaunt around Venice?

That way he could get his workout done! Sidenote: I use a rowing machine at home: 5000 meters in 33 and a half minutes last night. Not great, but not bad for a 66 year old diabetic cardiac patient. Thank you, Lord Jesus!

V: What also floats in water?
K: A duck
P1(thinking): If she weights the same as a duck… she’s made of wood!
V: And therefore,

P3: A witch! (P1: a witch)(P2: a witch)(all: a witch!)
