Pumps' Perplexities

Starting tomorrow every major world orginization will have
someone watching a "chimney"...The 24/7 cable networks
will have a camera taking the picture of a "chimney"...There
will be male and female anchor people talking about the
"chimney"...

These anchor people will gibber and jabber, make up
unneeded verbiage because there will be a picture on the
TV screen of a "chimney"...

Frustration will ruin the day of many an anchor person
because they do not know what is happening underneath the
"chimney"...That is because the mighty world of the modern
press corp can not deal with 115 people keeping their mouths
shut...No sources, no informants, no leaks, just 115 people
who have nothing to say...

Within a few days there will be white smoke coming from
the "chimney" and the bell will ring in a new Pope....Until
then enjoy the "World of Non-News" on your favorite cable
or television network...Pumps
