Popes to be elected using Vape.



In a week where E-Cig manufacturers pressure MP’s to extend vaping laws, the Vatican has confirmed that they will be employing a Benedictine Monk with a sixty a day habit.  In the event of a Papal Conclave, Brother Antonio will perch in the loft of the Sistine Chapel with a twenty foot e-cigarette and a vat of incense-infused nicotine.


Originally the suggestion was that all 115 cardinals would smoke regular sized e-cigs, but they were theologically split between the flavours of Banana Hammock Bread and Jesuit Black Mamba. Instead, Brother Antonio was seen as a neutral arbitrator and classic pot head.

Project: Evil - the ultimate guide to project managing the end of the world


Before Musk, Trump and Putin, B L O'Feld led the field in World Domination.


Barry Liam O'Feld, CEO of B L O'Feld Megalomaniac Industries (BLOMI), wants a super evil secret lair building in a remote South Seas location to destroy the planet or possibly worse, so he needs a project manager; which is fortunate as Brian wants a job. Unfortunately Brian is a catering manager, so naturally he lies. Luckily for Brian, lying is a core value for O'Feld Industries.


In Project: Evil follow the progress of Brian’s project meeting by meeting, observing the interaction of the various stakeholders from the project sponsor to the humble henchpersons employed as cannon fodder as Brian struggles to keep the project on track. Not only does he have to cope with the warped logic of a company that doesn’t value its own life let alone that of its enemies, he has to deal with the unwelcome advances of the octogenarian Secret Service agent James Bund while also somehow project managing the Christmas office party as O’Feld rushes to beat his peer megalomaniacs such as Doktor Negatif and Gold Digit to be the first to destroy the planet.


If project management has ever seemed a mystery, a black art or even (improbably) a dull activity then Project: Evil may be the only book that will make you realise just how funny the subject can be. It may even help you understand why the bad guys feel inclined to run around in sh!t coloured pyjamas when the going gets tough. Recommended reading for all project managers and sufferers of their art form everywhere.
