Limitations of the Brown Telephone

(10)

Well folks, as you can see, it is difficult to communicate with God. It is even difficult for ME and I have the Brown Telephone, you don't. If you've ever wondered how you could ever get a solid direct connection to God I am here to tell you that it is a real problem without the Brown Telephone. Popes have not been able to communicate with God! You can now see for yourselves that even with a Brown Telephone it is difficult to communicate with God. Why?

me: Earth is a planet.
god: Ahh! Where are you located?
me: About three quarters of the way from the center of our galaxy.
god: Which galaxy?
me: The Milky Way.
god: Is that a local name?
me: Yep.
god: What's the NGC number?
me: Beats the hell out of me.
god: I need an NGC number.
me: What's an NGC number?
