pope jokes from a chicago legend.

king of improv, jonathan pitts, my good fb friend-

The new Pope’s from Chicago! So here’s 8 Chicago style Pope jokes:
Chicago’s phrase “I got a guy…” for whenever someone knows somebody who can help, is now, “I got a guy who knows God.”
How did Pope Leo get elected so quickly? The old Chicago way: vote early and vote often.
Putting ketchup on hot dogs will be considered a venial sin.
Pope Leo will finally declare whether Chicago deep dish style pizza is a pizza or a pie.
Improv will become an additional liturgical language spoken in Catholic Masses.
Pope Leo will heal the division between Cubs fans and White Sox fans.
"They pull a sin, you pull a cross. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to hell. That's the Chicago way. Thats how you get Satan.” - The Untouchables (Remix)
It’s officially ok to refer to him as “Da Pope”.


cuz most of what i have to say is a bit sharp.

Here's what greeted Kristi Noem when she was going to speak in front of
the Governor's Mansion yesterday. Had to find a different location.

J.B. may be the best Governor of Illinois I can remember. After him would be Pat Quinn
who deserved better after inheriting the Blagojevich mess.
