I asked #popefrancis if we could pray for Lil Wayne. Just trying to expand our Generation Y outreach. Denied. Again. #conclaveconfidential

#popefrancis says I have until Sunday to take down my flyers. Guess he didn't love my slogan: "Putting the I CAN in Vatican"
I tried to lobby #PopeFrancis to declare #piday Pious Day. He declined. Again. Sensing a pattern. I'm full of good ideas. #conclaveconcern

If he's not going to use the Popemobile or the apartment, I wonder if they'd let me have it... #taxdeductiblebusinessexpense #popefrancis
Night two and I've moved on to the second stage of grief: anger. Hitting the Holiday Inn gym to take out some papal loss aggression.
Looking for Broadway representation. Have some fabulous insight for Conclave: The Musical #popefrancis #popewatch2013
@PopeInBoca I know of one Cardinal (rhymes with Hagle) who may need an extra martini tonight...
@PopeInBoca luckily the low light in the cathedral hides a great deal.
Taking Pope Francis to my traditional post #conclave meal. In true sore loser fashion, I told him he can only order off the dollar menu.
Remember that old adage that you should never vote for yourself? Yea, me neither. #conclaveconfidential

#PopeFrancis to meet #Benedict tomorrow. What are they going to call each other? Your Holiness? My Holiness? Our Holinesses? #awkward

Just shipped a copy of "Pope-ing for Dummies" to Pope Francis. Thanks to @amazon prime, it'll arrive tomorrow!

Someone needs to cut off Cardinal Tagle. There's always the next conclave man.
...but we didn't order delivery... "It's not delivery, it's Bergoglio." #Conclave #Pope #whitesmoke

Heading to dinner with the Cardinals. Said to the Pope, "this the closest thing to a wedding reception you'll ever have". #nogiftsorry
Tens of thousands gather in the Vatican for worlds largest Harlem Shake video. #Pope
