28 January 1972

Cathédrale Saint-Pierre-et-Saint-Paul de Nantes is engulfed by a gigantic fire.


At this point God looked around the place, expecting his minions to be hurrying themselves in fire extinguishing activities. But they weren’t. With raised eyebrows he drew his God Sword and prepared to dish out some wrath.

GS: "zzziiiinnggg"


He found the then in-training Minister of Ceremonies (MC) Pacobel esquire asleep by the seaside.

MCP: " "

God then summoned the Angel-Boy Julius for an explanation.

AB-J: “Uh… I’m kind of busy looking at this rose. Shouldn’t Jesus be organising the show on the ground? I mean that’s what you beamed him down to earth for isn’t it?”

God then summoned the Role Caller to assist in locating his son, Jesus.

RC: "Look man… I dunno man. Can’t see him on the roll call…uhhhh .. uh huh ...looks like he’s missed church 5 times this week. Oop. Make that six. Six times. Yessir."

Enraged God used his Omni-Vision ® to scour the earth in search of his wayward offspring.

And there! There he was. Sleeping! Boy was he gonna cop it.
