The Vatican, in one of the quickest votes ever, has selected Cardinal Sicola of Italy to be the next Pope.

Cardinal Secola has basically an undistinguished record during his tenure but the Vatican could not resist the opportunity to select the world's first Pope Sicola!

LOL, do you have some inside secret news? The TV media says they don't pick one on the first vote, and no bells have been rung, so....
how did you come up with this? Unless of course, you are hoping he is the number one popsicle.

(giggles) Good one, dearest friend, hehehe!



I myself am rooting for the Haitian in particular, though the Brazilian and Nigerian candidates I'm sure will also make great next Popes that will definitely influence the Third World and such.

I'm too Poped to poop
but I'm not lying
I'm laughing so hard
my eyes are crying !!!

If it were'nt so much fun
here on the bottom burner
I'd just jump on top
cause that would be FUNNER !!

This could only have come from you Balladeer.

Alas, we all know now, no popesies or pepsies in the coming years.

Like scattered leaves...my words will flow
