1981 was the year before I retired from the Navy. 2005 was the year before I went into the hospital for the first time. Lesson learned, don't get sick.

It would be a funnier joke if it were more accurate.

FYI, the last pope to die before Pope John Paul II in 2005 was Pope John Paul I in 1978. I think the confusion comes in the fact that there was an assassination attempt of Pope John Paul II in 1981, however the Pope obviously survived.
