...Back in Rome, one way Benedict has found to play to the crowds is by sporting rarely seen papal headwear. In the winter, he has twice donned a fun Santa-like red fur cap, while last week he dusted off a sombrero style red cowboy hat that John Paul had once worn in Mexico. No doubt, Germans are hoping that over the next few days, someone will convince Benedict to put on a traditional Bavarian feathered green Alpine hat. Then, faithful and non-faithful alike, Catholics and Lutherans, will no doubt go wild for the Bavarian Pope...

...This time around, there are unlikely to be any sombrero-clad boys gracing the desserts or mariachi bands serenading the diners. Keeping mum about the menu until the last minute, the White House did inform the media early on that Tex Mex would not be served. And while that may been intended to assuage fears that President George W.
