Fantastic news! A new Pope! And he's German! I can tell you, my local WI, from which I've just returned from an Emergency Extra Ordinary Emergency Meeting cum Beetle Drive, is buzzing with rumours of how this news will effect the LMP1 Category next season. If he's still alive. It seems only a matter of time, to me at least, before there's a Vatican sponsored Porker hogging the limelight at La Sarthe. I wouldn't mind laying a bet that they're already drawing up short lists for pit lane padres and grid-nuns. He can't ignore the prayers of so many, and as for loaves and sausages, I can only say it was a premonition. Kinnell, it's just so exciting!! This could be as good as the Group Vache days that we all remember so fondly. Or remember fondling. Whatever. ZEIG MARY!!!

He was, but then again, every child was - it was compulsory. Don't think he ever joined the Nazi party.
I've just got £20 on the Nigerian chappie being the next Pope 10/1!
Just imagine the accumulator on that a month ago - a former Hitler Youth followed be a Rasta as Pope.

Hopefully the Nigerian chappie isn't connected to 419 or we could see a return the like of a Medici controlled vatican. They had ways of making you prey too.

I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

The locals here in Cincinnati (which is of mostly of German heritage) are already refering to him as Pope Panzer. Does this mean the Popemobile will be a Tiger. Fax

No, an Italian Popemobile with 6 reverse gears and 1 forward.

Quite! - and while we're having a pop at the spicks, isn't the Italian battle flag a white cross on a white background?

The one forward gear was in case of attack from the rear.
