Oo, the cable went out at the office. So sad.
LJ says we have white smoke.
Habemus papam.
Habemus = we have. Papam should be obvious.
'We have', 'we've got', not so different.
'We've got', 'we got'…
Oh no.
Please don't tell me somebody in the Vatican just got a piece of paper from where the cardinals have been locked up, read the paper, slammed his hand down on a bell, and screamed "WE GOT ONE!" in Latin.
rassum frassum stinkin' friggin' brain.

This would give you papam cum spama habeam.

Date: 2005-04-19 07:07 pm (UTC)I'm the only one here as they bury your hide
And this is the last time I'll be by your side
The world is one soul fewer
The preacher says the last rites so well
Says you're going to Heaven and not to Hell
But he has to say that and I know damn well
That you're Satan bound
So if you go to Hell
Would you get me something nice?
Maybe a T-shirt, or maybe a hat
Or maybe some loaded dice?
And if you go to Hell
Would you at least send me a card
So I'll know how you're doing
And I'll know where you are?
