Abyssinia Samoa, Popey

(1) Isn't it funny how it's only when you become rich and famous and can afford stuff that you get free stuff? Likewise all these prayer vigils for the Pope. The POPE.

(2) We were watching some show on Sunday about old John Paul and how many people had been beatified and canonised on his watch, including that testy old crone, Mother Teresa. Apparently an Indian woman carried a picture of MT on her stomach and, following this, her intestinal tumour just 'went away'. Doctors claimed she'd responded to new drugs, the Vatican that it was a miracle. Grumpy asked, "What would it be called if you strapped a picture of Mother Teresa to your gut and your pregnancy went away?"*



*Don't get excited. The 'you' was general, not specific.

Wouldn't it be great on those days when your jeans just dont quite fit to take Mother T's pic and put it around your belly?

Thats why those brazilians make those bikinis...They must love her.

Good job..

Nobody ever prays for Satan, the spirit most in need of prayer.
