who else remembers pictures of JFK or the Pope
or MLK or old man Daley at people's houses or at businesses when they were younger?

some of our relatives had pictures of the pope and JFK in their living rooms.

3. JFK that is
She's a Catholic who has little respect for popes. John XXIII was okay but before and after... pffft.

5. not at our house...we're WASPs, our Irish and Polish friends however...
They would have pictures of JFK and the Pope and that disturbing painting of Jesus ripping his chest open. One family also had their kids kiss a picture of their dead Grandfather Good Night - every night......

We just had family photos, abstract art and landscapes.......our house always looked more like my Jewish friends' houses
