Tuber Mirum 125 Posted January 18, 2005 Are you sure "spada" doesn't mean "shovel"? Sounds much more likely to me. Saw His Holiness yesterday on the telly giving an audience to Michael Schumacher and the Ferrari team. Didn't look like he would be that nifty any more with the old Golden Papal Shovel, in fact he looked downright rough. If he doesn't go this year, I'll eat my shovel.

Typhoid Harry 23 Posted January 19, 2005 Isn't it about time for the Illuminati to step in and pull the plug on this dinosaur? It drives me crazy that a man without a zipper on his pants is passing judgement on the sexual practices of others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted January 20, 2005 It sort of does if you use the Italian for Pope, don't know if he's that hot at the bones though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Four Horsemen 26 Posted January 20, 2005 I was really alluding to either the Pope playing dominoes, or the fact that there are now 2 Popes - "mine" and "yours". I could be doing them a disservice and they were making a modern urban commentary of the great Papal Schism when there were 2 popes (1 in Rome, 1 in Avignon should anyone care) but I have my doubts.........
