Gil, a wonderful 4.5 minutes, thank you! - After viewing the presentation inside the Roman Colesium, it's easy to see (and in this case, hear) why the Roman Empire fell to Christianity... Are these four tenors the priests from Ireland, OR?  Curious minds would like to know....

Subject: Smiley, when I went to Rome in 1990...

...I was part of a private audience with Pope John Paul II. Then a few of us went to the Coliseum after.

I sent a postcard to my Grandma stating....."went to Rome, saw John and Paul but didn't see George or Ringo....then went to the Coliseum, the latest score, Lions 50, Christians 0"

On my return I was expecting a 'clip around the ear' for being naughty, but my Gran surprised me and said, "I took your postcard to church and they all loved it"

Good old Gran!

A photo of me and Pope John Paul II took pride position in her home up until her passing 3 years ago.

How wonderful for you, Paul.  My kids got to meet him when he said Mass in Central Park.  It was one of their favorite encounters.  I have to look for those photos.  My son was an absolute camera bug that day.

John, the Irish priests group is called "The Priests".  PBS has been showing clips and offering their DVD and video as patrons (our local PBS stations...we have three in general area...L.I., NYC and NJ).  I would love to see them in concert.
