The Pope is dreaming:
Saint Peter: Good to see you my successor! You need to fill all these out before your exit interview with Jesus.
Pope Francis:Â What is this immense pile of paper?
Saint Peter: A new requirement. For every week of your pontificate just put down five things you did to advance the Kingdom.
Pope Francis:Â But that will take para siempre!
Saint Peter: Well I am in Eternity, so time is not a factor.
Pope Francis:Â Did you have to do this?
Saint Peter: No, after being crucified upside down, Jesus waived all paperwork in my case.
Pope Francis:Â May I have some clerical asistencia?
Saint Peter: We do have a large number of monkeys who have been typing since the beginning of time below. I’ll see if they can lend a hand.
Pope Francis:Â What is that sound?
Saint Peter:Â I believe it is what is keeping you alive.
And with that the sound of machinery in the room roused the Pope from his slumber.
Somehow monkeys and Francis seem to go together. Thanks for the smile of the day.
