As Frank and I were walking to St. Peter's Square on Sunday morning to see the pope greet the masses from his study window we ran across a souvenir stand just outside of the Vatican wall selling bobble head dolls. 

I'm not exactly the bobble head doll collecting type, but the back row of dolls consisting of a roman emporer, some gladiators and a member of the Swiss guard seemed like reasonable souvenirs. However, the front row of Pope bobble head dolls, complete with crucifix, seemed a little strange to me and perhaps bordering on sacrilegious. What do you think? Do you find it odd or would you want one?
