Dont want to start any fires over this but just passed Rons house and there seems to be light grey smoke from the chimney.

Now that's what I call giving up something for Lent

 

[Tarracus]

That's the one and only Benedict I know..

On the other hand, If the new pope elected is a black guy.. Will he adopte the name of B.A. BaracusII?

As His Holyness the Pope quit on the same day that North Korea fired a nuclear weapon, does this mean he went out with a bang?????

The race to become the next Pope has clearly got a lot of pF members eager to influence the choice of who the new Pontiff should be. The contest is said to be 'wide open' with a number of possible contenders.

Father Jack Irish priest, lives on Craggy Island. Pros: Might not be Catholic, Likes Guinness. Speaks his mind in very simple terms that ordinary lay people can grasp. 'Girls', 'Drink' and 'Feck' are understandable in all languages. Cons: Might not be Catholic. Has visions that don't seem to relate to Catholic doctrine.
Betting Odds: 10/1
Tomas de Torquemada Hardline, Spanish heretic burner. Would run a very tight ship. Pros: Will make Pope Benedict look like a pot smoking liberal with loose morals. Cons: Dead. Very dead since 1498 which would be an administrative challenge for the Vatican but not impossible.
Betting odds:11/1
Sister Wendy A British nun, lives in a caravan. Talks and writes about art including a lot of naked paintings. Pros: Celibate. Teeth. Is a real nun. Cons: British, a woman. A bit old too, may smell a bit..you know what old people are like when it comes to washing.
Betting odds:16/1
Arizona Cardinals An American baseball team since 1900 which is by USA standards, very very old. Pros: A body of professionals who will really take the game to the Protestants and other heretics. Any teams put up by Protestants, Various Orthodox faiths, Jews, Muslims or Atheists will not stand a chance on the field. Cons: Theological stance on, sex before marriage, gay sex, condoms, mixed showers etc.. not known and may cause disquiet in traditional circles. Also being an American sports team will cause problems in other countries that don't play the game.
Betting odds:996/1
