Could JD Vance meet the most famous Catholic of them all?
Is that Jesus?

And please don't argue with me about that joke like everyone on Twitter did. It's a joke. Yes, Jesus was Jewish - I know, I did a whole show about him. And if he was trying to start up a new religion then why was he so concerned with correcting minor points of doctrine in the Jewish faith? I think it's fair to say that he might be the most famous Christian even so though, right? And yes it's ridiculous to describe him as a Catholic (though Catholics might feel differently). It's almost like there was some kind of attempt of a joke in here.
Jesus is more famous a Christian than the Pope. Certainly if you've heard of the Pope you've heard of Jesus. I don't think anyone's going up to the Pope and saying, "Hey Pope, nice to meet you. I know you're a Pope, but what is that exactly?.... Jesus Who?"
I will never try to make jokes again.
Bank Holiday traffic was pretty heavy on the way home and a couple ore accidents held us up a little bit, but it was still worth it all to get to play Liverpool. It's a city that is arguably responsible for me losing a testicle, but I still love you guys. Whatever you can throw at me. Usually University lecturers.
I was at home by 2.30pm, in time to join my family for a huge Good Friday lunch (though they'd had their main course already). I was home just as York City had confirmed a fine 3-1 win over Gateshead and was able to follow the rest of the National League action on my phone concluding with Barnet dropping 2 more points to set up an unlikely battle for promotion. They've dropped 7 points in the last 3 matches and York have won the last five (scoring 20 goals in the last four matches) and though Barnet are still 4 points clear with 3 matches to go, if they screw up a couple of their ties and York win all of theirs..... Not going to happen, but when York were 11 points behind three matches ago it did seem all wrapped up.
What an interesting blog entry, right everyone? Well this is the only life I have and if you want a better one then read someone else's blog. Hold on, where are you going? Come back. I might get better. I'll try and get in some more fights... Oh what's the point? My life is over. Just come on the dull toboggan ride to doom with me.
