Popemobile on ebay.de
Ratzinger's VW Golf is being auctioned off on ebay.de:

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...4545301886&rd=1

It's over 1 million USD already!

"Does black smoke or white smoke come out of the exhaust pipe?" one posting on the site asked - a reference to the signal used at the Vatican to show whether a new pope has been elected by the secret conclave of cardinals.

"Very funny," was the reply.

that is the funniest thing I've read in a long long time!

Knowing VW (virtually worthless), it's gotta be one of the two lol.

So - I don't know about you guys (And mean no offense to anyone catholic) - But I'll be ever so glad when all the pope related stuff calms down ....

How many worthless domains were registered because of this ?
