POKER IN THE FRONT, LIQUOR IN THE REAR
November 23rd 2006 21:08
VATICAN CITY:Drama erupted like Mount Vesuvius in the Holy City when Pope Benedict XVI took a televised public confession designed to be a 'How to' guide for born again Christians.
In what seemed like a good idea at the time Vatican officials and a worldwide viewing audience estimated to be over 100 million were shocked when His Holiness revealed what actually goes on behind closed doors in the Vatican City.
The heartbroken jilted lover of Italian screen siren and comatose victim Sophia Loren admitted to wild nights of partying and gambling saying "there was a long line of Hollywood stars banging on his back door during the night."
Hollywood heathrob Rock Hudson was one of his most regular customers the Pontiff claimed.
"Rock would always suck me dry," said Benny "Either with booze or the cards. We had poker in the front and liquor in the rear. It is a pretty good set up. I wanted to put in a drive in bottle shop but the Cardinals cracked the sads and stopped me."
Indeed it does seem that not only do all roads lead to Rome but they lead right to the Pontiff's front door. Famous names and celebrity Catholics alike read like a who's who in the gaming room guest book.
Names like Brando, Madonna, Castro, Pavarotti, Domingo and the other guy just to name a few.
The Holy See fondly remembers the night Pavarotti brought the Young Divas with him.
Said Pope Benedict with a smile,"They came in with Three Tenors but left with two grand!"
