    What's up with the whole white smoke, black smoke signal system they are using to let the world know when a new pope is picked?

    I thought smoke signals went out with the Old West... "mmm...me seeum smokum...black smokum...no pick pope yet" Couldn't they like send a messanger out with the results? Here's an idea, pick up the phone and call somebody....geez.

    ...and I thought JW judicial committee meetings were wacky.

    It's a long, long tradition...like, you know, bad Hollywood Indian impersonations.

    except this time, they're also going to ring the Vatican bells.

    Go to www.cbsnews.com and you can watch a live webcast of the chimney at the Vatican...I guess you can call it popecam.

    Treshappy - is there a link to the inner sanctum so I can see who the judges of Pope Idol are?

    It's a great PR gimmick... The WTS should come up with something similar.

    Of course, they would just say that it's pagan or worldly.... these guys are no fun.
