So who's going to be the new Pope? The Washington Post has an idea.

"...gamblers around the world can log onto paddypower.com, click on the Novelties section and put their money on Dionigi Tettamanzi, who is rating 11 to 4 odds in the race for the papacy. Or they can take their chances on Father Dougal Maguire of Craggy Island, Ireland, a long shot at 1,000 to 1."

I think that's a longer shot than the Washington Post realises. smiley - rofl
