I'm still waiting for The Flying Spaghetti Monster ( All Praise to His Noodliness ) to let me know when my beatification is coming through.
I once killed her. I was night news editor on the late shift of the newspaper I was working on in Australia back in the nineties - and she was gravely ill and really really old. The last edition was due to go to press and I thought 'well she's not going to make it to the morning' so I ran her obituary. Oops. She pulled off one of her miracles and 'did a Lazarus'. Was my name mud.
Your a pastafarian as well Our pasta, who art in a colander, draining be your noodles. Thy noodle come, Thy sauce be yum, on top some grated Parmesan. Give us this day our garlic bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trample on our lawns. And lead us not into vegetarianism, but deliver us some pizza, for thine is the meatball, the noodle, and the sauce, forever and ever. RAmen.
Are we talking about this person? It'll be a miracle if she gets us out of this mess. She doesn't dress much like a nun.
Visited her mission in downtown Calcutta india back in the nineties, Was actually thinking shed be there , But we were dissapointed ,when we where told she was in the contryside retired like. The polution in the air you could cut with a knife there..
I once went on pilgrimage to Lourdes, I'm not a catholic or a believer in any of that stuff, I went to support some people with special needs who were going to take "the waters" there. We went to mass every day. It was an, er, interesting experience. Not bad in any way, just different and, as an outsider to all that stuff Catholics do, a bit weird. There were thousands of them there, I kept wanting to shout out the lines from The Meaning of Life, "Look at 'em! Bloody Catholics! Filling up the bloody world up with bloody people they cant afford to bloody feed!" Wasn't sure anyone would see the funny side
Presumably the paper changed it before it went on sale but did you manage to sneak a copy of it. If so.........
Oddly, I used to play snooker with Mother Theresa (or "Tezza" as she liked to be known). Looked completely different leaning over the table with her habit rolled up and a fag in her mouth...
Sadly not. Honestly it wasn't funny at the time. I was young and trying desperately to impress. LOL. I just googled it. sadly no record of my howling misdemeanour.
