Where do they meet for lunch?
Archbishop O'Malley said today that about 60 members of his family -- that's six-zero -- are coming to Rome for the Friday consistory at which he will be made a cardinal.
"They're beginning to arrive in droves," he said. "I don't know whether Rome is ready for this."
O'Malley said his relatives are coming from South Florida, Cleveland, Denver, and a variety of other locales.
"I said at my installation that all the O'Malleys came, except the ones we weren't talking to," he said. "But I think even the ones we're not talking to are coming to this."
