Hey, AndrewC! Can I ask where first you heard that "mask a pony" cheese pun? Pretty amazingly, I heard Mark Kermode deliver that bit of wit on the ending podcast portion of his show Friday, which was probably less than an hour after you posted it on Doug's list. Mollusk!

The FMA is smartly delaying the announcement until next week, when the Pope news have died down a little. Because these two news items clearly have the same demographic.

The song means "Only White", but "berre" sounds like Barry, so it's half-pun, half translation joke.
