Happy Blogiversary

Today is the one-year blogiversary of the World Wide Rant. Go give your props and mad programming skills to Andy and Tom. Andy said he spoke to Jesus, and Jesus said that if you do, it will counter one of your sins. Well, Andy has one up on me, given that I don't speak to Jesus. But I ask you, how many Jewish girls have the Pope as an uncle? (Go ahead, ask.)

Okay, I gotta ask.

How many jewish girls have the pope as an uncle?

Well, Lesley is one.

The Pope is her uncle because he's my brother-in-law. Now ask how such a thing is possible.

How is it possible a nice young jewish girl can have the pope for a brother in law?

Do I smell a conspiracy? Do the jews control the pope too?

Well, I'm not a young Jewish girl, but here is the story about the Pope and the S***** family.

If we can find a picture of my late father-in-law, we can post it, and ask how many people think that he and the Pope look like twins. We do. Because of the uncanny resemblence and the fact that they are both from the same part of Poland, my sister-in-law is convinced my father-in-law is the Pope's father, which makes her the Pope's half sister.

Nobody else believes it, but we do tease her about it, and each other about the supposed relationship.

But a joke is a long way from a conspiracy.

Justin, Justin, Justin. Do I need to send the black helicopters to your house as well? Sigh, a conspiracist's work is never done.

Mom, you are not be a young jewish girl? I will never tell.

Sorry to let the cat out of the bag Lesley. But your black helicopters will not be of much use, we in Idaho have known of them for quite some time and are prepared. ICBSL's may seem a childs toy, but let me warn you, a 5 pound russet fired at that high velocity does more than mash potatoes.

(for the casual observer ICBSL = Inter-continental ballistic spud launcher)
