Whetu and Paul

[Taniwha]

Whetu was speaking to his friend Paul and boasted that he knew everyone in the world. Naturally Paul didn't believe him and challenged him to prove it.
"Do you know Bill Gates?"
"Me and Bill? Oh yeah we go way back." He picked up the phone and called him. "Hey Bill, it's Whetu. We still on for dinner next week? Choice, I'll see you then bro"
Impressed, but not convinced, Paul asked, "How about Michael Jordan?"
"Mike? Absolutely." He picked up the phone and called him. "Hey Mike, want to play a pick up game? Churr, I'll see you then cuzzie."
Paul was nearly convinced, but he had one more test. "How about Pope Francis?"
"Definitely." Whetu dialed up the pope but there was no answer. "Well, looks like we have to go to Rome."
So Paul and Whetu headed to Rome and found the Pope in the middle of a sermon over St. Peter's Square. Leaving Paul in the crowd Whetu made his way to the balcony. Once there the pope waved him over and invited him to join him in his sermon. Whetu began to speak but then noticed a commotion in the crowd. Paul had fainted. Whetu rushed down and found Paul sitting up but still dazed.
"Paul, what happened?"
"Well, I saw you on the balcony and I was fine until someone next to me said, 'who the hell is that on the balcony with Whetu?'"
