A couple days to go. Each next birthday is most welcome.

He’s two months younger than me.

When compared to historic events. But I’ll never be older than my wife. Oh My. Lover her dearly. She robbed the cradle now we’re both on Medicare.

My Dad was eight years older than my Mom and lived eight years after she died. Odd how age does or does not matter!

He looks too young to be a Pope! If he’s as good as advertised hope we have him for many years.

Hope you have to wait a long time My Friend to hit the older than the Pope milestone. Interesting, today he spoke in three languages, none of them English.

I can't remember the pope who was in office when I was born (Pius XII) but remember all the others.

I remember Pope John Paul THE FIRST. Served about a month. I’m sticking with poison in the tea as cause of death. He was upsetting the fiscal apple cart. Purely speculation on my part.

And especially remember JP One, thinking the name he selected was pretty cool as we had a pop star called John Paul Young.

heard On the Radio, the Pope has died. I thought, no the Pope died last month.

I kept thinking John Paul (George and Ringo).

Has to be right for me as well.

The pope is a whippersnapper 3 days younger…

Helluva Milestone Birthday ya got there.

Welcome to the club!
I usually take note when someone passes.
Damn! I'm older than he/she was.
So much for "Hope I die before I get old".
More "Live long and pain free"

By 4 months... I'm way older than Pope Leo X(V Born on September 14, 1955.

I haven't gone to church since the last family funeral ('recovered' Catholic here) but was born and raised a devout Catholic in Chicago and am hopeful that the new Pope will stand up to the nasty business going on here in the USA.
