Happy 80th Birthday of Pope Benedict Day!

April 16th is Pope Benedict's birthday.

Christopher Blosser of the Pope Benedict XVI Fanclub has a fine round-up to start your celebrations.

Gerard Augustinus actually attended the Papal Mass yesterday.

Via Amy, you can wish the Pope a happy birthday right here.

As for me, I think you can guess what I'm going to try to have for breakfast today. :-)

Viva Il Papa! - Long live the Pope!
