A short history lesson

This was sent around at work:

History Repeating...

Year 1981
1. Prince Charles got married
2. Liverpool crowned Champions of Europe
3. Australia lost the Ashes
4. Pope Died


Year 2005
1. Prince Charles got married
2. Liverpool crowned Champions of Europe
3. Australia lost the Ashes
4. Pope Died


The lesson - the next time Charles gets married, someone warn the Pope!

Very amusing but unfortunately wrong - Pope John Paul I died in 1978.

Pope John Paul II was shot in 1981. But, as you may have noticed, he didn't die.

Good point - still worth warning the Pontiff though...

You'd think he'd have better information already really, wouldn't you? Though as Bill Hicks pointed out, having a bulletproof Popemobile doesn't demonstrate a great deal of faith in the boss.
