Amstetten, Austria - (Tunnel Visionary Mess): Pope Joe Ratzinger has 'bent over backwards' to appease disgust and dismay among his senior Austrian gofers in the aftermath of a public outcry about an underground tunnel between the Vatican and Amstetten dungeonmaster Joseph Fritzl's hellish hideyhole.
The Pontifical meeting with the archbishops of Vienna and Salzburg, the bishops of Graz-Seckau and Linz and Oberammagau's Chief Exorcist ended in uproar today however after widespread rebellion about proposals to concrete over the French Riviera branch of the subterranean passage.
Traditionally access to this branch line has been something of an industry perk because of the exit's proximity to the biggest legit money laundering bank in next-door Monaco.
Papal personal secretary Monsignor Georg Gangswine is Bernard 'Ponzi-Scam' Madoff's firstborn bastard.
