Robert Blake has announced that he's currently rather destitute. He's so poor, in fact, that, yesterday, he had to go back into Denny's to retrieve his pistol.

Now they're taking odds for the *next* pope, i.e. the one after Benedict
http://www.paddypower.com/bet?action=show_type_by_main_market&category=SPECIALS&ev_class_id=45&id=520 And check who's listed at 1000-1 !!!!!

And he'll be known as "Pope Ringo George I" just to keep the trend going.
Funny you should say that…here's an exchange I had with PaddyPower.com, a betting agency in Ireland, last Monday:

>>Hi,
>>Thank you for your mail,
>>We will not be adding Bono to the list for next Pope im afraid,
>>although if you wish to back him we will offer you a price of 500-1,
>>you can call dial a bet at 1800 721 821 (irl) or 08000 565 265 (uk)."
What's weird is, at the time, they were giving odds of 1000-1 for a 'Father Dougal Maguire of Craggy Island' so apparently they weren't prepared to totally rule Bono out…
