Of Androids and Koalas

Of Androids And Koalas


Pope Francis picked up the phone on this Saturday evening of November 15th 2014 to make another one of his surprise phone calls to ordinary people.


The man he was calling was a journalist and a writer and Francis wished to discuss an article that the man had written.


The man answered the phone but it turned out that the 1939 film Of Mice and Men (based on the novella by John Steinbeck) was on TV and it was just starting and he didn't want to miss it so he said to Francis, "Some other time, Your Holiness" and hung up the phone.


Francis had to chuckle.


As he put the phone down, it rang again.


Francis picked it up.


It was a Vatican museum curator calling.


Apparently they had just found in one of their hundreds of thousands of crates the actual robotic automaton called Androides that had been invented, built and designed by Saint Albertus Magnus (Saint Albert the Great born 1193? - died 1280)  one of the greatest philosophers and scientists of the High Middle Ages.


Most Church historians had just thought the story of Albertus Magnus building the automaton Androides was a medieval legend.


Now it turned out to be true.


Pope Francis then looked at the date on the calendar again.


November 15th.


Albertus Magnus' automaton creation had been found on the Feast Day of Saint Albertus Magnus.




             .           .          .


American CIA agent Bob Belfor (whose family owned a property restoration business) was in Brisbane Australia at the G-20 Summit.


Belfor was on a rogue operation.

He had been hired to assassinate Russian President Vladimir Putin at the summit.


So now Belfor was outside the place in Brisbane where the Russian leader was staying.


He was using the camera on an iPad tablet to record the event and send it via the Internet to his superiors as it happened.


A koala bear was climbing up the side of the building and carrying a gun at the same time.


"I trained the koala myself," Belfor spoke into the iPad mic.


Belfor was lying to impress his superiors of course (the koala was really the shapeshifting genetically created half-man half goat satyr serial killer and hired U.S. government assassin Pan Goatee who had shapeshifted into a koala for the occasion).

The koala entered through  the window of Putin's room.


He was immediately kicked out of the room and thrown out the window by the Russian leader's red headed female cyborg Sophia who was acting as Putin's bodyguard.


"The best laid plans of mice and men," Belfor wept as the koala hit the street, "they often go astray."
