White-smoke
There were two Catholic boys, Timothy Murphy and Antonio Secola, whose lives paralleled each other in amazing ways. In the same year Timothy was born in Ireland, Antonio was born in Italy.
Faithfully they attended parochial school from kindergarten through their senior year in high school. They took their vows to enter the priesthood early in college, and upon graduation, became priests.
Their careers had come to amaze the world, but it was generally acknowledged that Antonio Secola was just a wee cut above Timothy Murphy in all respects.
Their rise through the ranks of Bishop, Archbishop and finally Cardinal was swift to say the least and the Catholic world knew that when the present Pope died, it would be one of the two who would become the next Pope.
In time the Pope did die, and the College of Cardinals went to work. In less time than anyone had expected, white smoke rose from the chimney and the world waited to see whom they had chosen.
The world, Catholic, Protestant and secular, was surprised to learn that Timothy Murphy had been elected Pope!
Antonio Secola was beyond surprise. He was devastated, because even with all of Timothy's gifts, Antonio knew he was just a bit better qualified.
With gall that shocked the Cardinals, Antonio Secola asked for a private session with them in which he candidly asked: "Why Timothy?”
After a long silence, an old Cardinal took pity on the bewildered man and rose to reply.
"We knew you were the better of the two, but we just could not bear the thought of the leader of the Roman Catholic Church being called POPE SE-COLA!

cessna1721An article on news-press.com caught my eye today. It says that a North Carolina pilot, David Zehntner, of Charlotte County, was flying home in his plane and decided to fly over his own house. In the process he saw a thief stealing his trailer from his driveway. The fact that he saw a silver truck in his driveway that shouldn’t be there caught his attention. So he decided to fly lower over his house on Loblolly Bay Road and saw a guy hitching up his trailer to a truck.
He rang the local police from his plane and decided to follow the truck in his plane helping the police to track him.
Police stopped the truck and arrested Gary Haines. When they looked inside the truck they found a fully loaded rifle and bullets on the ground.
Gary was charged with grand theft and released later on a $2500 bond.
So next time you’re flying home in your private plane, take a detour over your house to check it out!

On the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic in which 1,509 people died and only 705 were rescued the question is still asked by some:
“Was it a conspiracy?”
As with many calamities there are a number of conspiracy theories surrounding the sinking of the Titanic.
The most popular one is that IT WAS NOT THE TITANIC...
The Titanic’s sister ship, the Olympic, was almost identical and was involved in a collision with a Royal Navy cruiser. This left its keel cracked beyond repair and it was uninsured.
The Olympic was repainted and fitted to look like the Titanic and was sent on its “maiden” voyage to be sunk deliberately.
Captain Smith was to sail through icebergs and open the ships seacocks. The Californian and another mystery ship were waiting to pick up passengers. However, the second mystery ship hit an iceberg killing its power and lights causing the Titanic/Olympic to collide with it. Captain Smith thought he had collided with an uninvolved vessel and veered off from the scene of the “accident”. This took Titanic/Olympic off course; too far for the Californian to save the passengers.
THE VATICAN DID IT
Via the Jesuits
The Jesuits wanted the US Federal Reserve Bank to be established but three opponents of this needed to be eliminated. These were Guggenheim, Strauss and Astor. They persuaded JP Morgan to finance the building of the Titanic and to invite the three to sail on the voyage.
A Father Brown was sent along to persuade Captain Smith to sink the ship.
Why? They needed the bank to fund the 1st world war.
THE MUMMY’S CURSE
An Egyptian mummy of a priestess uncovered at Thebes was smuggled aboard. This mummy cursed all those who had dealings with it. It was smuggled on board by William Stead. This confirmed the curse of the mummy as Stead had told the passengers of its presence and they related the story later.
THE FREEMASONS
Two factions of the freemasons were at loggerheads “The Sons of Belial” and its rival, “The Love of One”. Rockefeller and JP Morgan were members of The Sons of Belial and wanted to eliminate members of its rival, several of whom were on board. It is alleged the Belial caused WW2 and the Wall Street crash as well as ordering Captain Smith to sink the Titanic. It is alleged that JP Morgan cancelled his trip on the Titanic at the last minute.
There are a number of facts that make inventing conspiracy theories a bit easier.
The Californians radio was turned off.
There was reportedly a mystery ship that passed and did not stop to help.
The Titanic fired white flares instead of red.
The look outs had no binoculars.
What do you think?
