I'm signing off with a joke (by the late, great Hector Nicol) which alludes to the tenor of this thread.

The crowd is about to stone the prostitute, Jesus halts them by saying " Let they who have no sin cast the first stone " All of a sudden a stone flies out and hits the prostitute on the head. Jesus turns to the crowd and says " Mother, sometimes you get on my wick"


Immaculate!


Bah-dum-bum -- tsss!!!!

Another one:
The pope dies and turns up at heaven's gate where Saint Peter stands with the key. The pope desires entry but Peter doesn't know him and tells him to wait so he can ask Mr. God or Mr. Jesus. When he talks to Jesus about the new dead man at the gate Jesus starts laughing: "Oh yes, the pope. Do you recall the fishing club I founded some 2000 years ago?"


A marketing professional dies and finds himself at the Pearly Gates with Saint Peter, who tells him he can choose to go to either Heaven, or Hell. A bit surprised at the choice, he asks if he can visit each place before making his decision. Saint Peter agrees and sends him through to Heaven, where he finds himself in a pleasant, bright, and somewhat gauzy circumstance, with people strolling happily and playing harps. Next, he visits Hell, where it is all partying and dancing and half naked frolicking. Having made his decision, he tells Saint Peter that while Heaven seems alright, it's a bit bland for his taste, while Hell seems far more entertaining. He is duly sent down to Hell, where he finds fire and brimstone and demons stabbing people with pitchforks and the like. Calling out to Saint Peter, he says "WTF? this isn't what you showed me at all! This is completely hideous and frightening!" Saint Peter pauses and then replies "You were in marketing...surely you're familiar with DEMOS?"

TCP - that is a very interesting design in the background of your Mary painting.

Wilkinson actually said he created the shaft, carried it up to the cave, and buried it (perhaps taking advantage of some sort of natural fissure or the like.) One can imagine scenarios where he 'slithered poles' down this shaft, and otherwise pretended to film the tomb in Sandy's presence but again, this is speculation on my part.




This is one of the odd explanations in Hammott's testimony.

How do you construct a shaft (did he say he did this in London - can't remember) and then transport it up a hill and fit it to an existing hole and then make it look natural? Why not just use the existing hole?

Seems bizare.


I don't really understand why there is confusion about the shaft when Ben has so clearly given it to us...

I'm so sorry you had to hear about it this way, and on top of all the rest of it too...
