For whatever reason some of the antics of Pope Benedict have struck me as highly entertaining in the farcical sort of way. So I bust a gut laughing when I came across
A Holy Roller
The pope who wears Prada has a new set of chic custom wheels.
Pope Benedict XVI, who has made headlines with his high-style red designer loafers and his Gucci shades, is tooling around the grounds of Vatican City in an electric car outfitted in luxurious Natuzzi Italian white leather. His latest fashion statement was donated to the pontiff by Global Electric Motorcars (GEM), a subsidiary of DaimlerChrysler, and Natuzzi.
Okay, okay I confess that the thought of the Pope sitting in white leather Natuzzi seats give me the giggles. Who knew the pope had a thing for Italian white leather? But seriously I'll give Benedict his props for "going green".
