" May God Forgive John Cofrancesco"Now that John Cofrancesco has been elected President, it's my turn to make a few bucks......I kept this story under wraps but a Blogger's gotta do what a Blogger's gotta do. This is a pre election story that needs telling....
direct from the mother of the president. Here are excerpts from Kelly herself.
Quoting Kelly ..."Okay, while in realty it really isn’t all that funny. I think you’ll probably find some humor out of this".
Two years ago when I dropped him off at college, we had a two-day parent orientation. During that time we had a lecture by Father Bob. Father Bob is the Dean of Discipline. He stated the during your child’s 4 year tenure at CUA, should you ever receive a phone call that begins with “Hi, this is Father Bob” … know that means that your child is in my office and is in trouble.
So, you know the Pope is in town and he is on CUA property. In fact the National Shrine which is about 100 ft from John’s dorm is actually considered to be Vatican soil. And, there is national security, secret service and Papal guards all over the university and John’s dorm is constantly being sweeped for bombs, he’s having to go through metal detectors and be searched and have his ID constantly checked, etc.
On Tuesday, I’m getting in my car after work and I receive a phone call on my cell and I see it’s a DC number but an unfamiliar one. I answer and the phone call goes like this:
Mrs. Cofrancesco or Ms. Conlon, I said yes. He then says, This is Father Bob of Catholic University. I replied, okay, WHAT did my son do?
In honor of the pope’s visit, John decides to host a Welcome Pope Party. To market this event, that brilliant child of mine posted an invitation all over FaceBook and printed large posters (about 50) and put them all over the front of the pub. By the way, the pub is directly across the street from the National Shrine. Well, this poster has the pope at the alter and where he should have been holding a big challis of wine, a giant pitcher of beer was photo-shopped in his hand. Additionally, the FaceBook and posters named John Co as the event host and had his cell number for more information.
ABC news got wind of this and went to the university for comment. John’s dorm room was swarmed by the powers that be and then he was told to immediately take down the posting off of Facebook. John replied yes sir, right away sir and he did remove the posting. Well, then he was told to go to the pub and remove all the posters that he put up because you can see them from the side steps of the shrine. The pub said NO WAY, they are not on CUA property and the posters are getting them press. Hence the phone to call to me.
I now have to meet with Father Bob when I’m in DC next week; to make sure my son stays out of trouble and stops hosting Blasphemy-type of parties!
In addition to this, I receive a phone call from John the following day, flipping out because the Secret Service came into his dorm with a boom sniffing dog and told him he had to get up and leave for an hour while the check the building. He was pissed. I asked him what time of day was this …thinking it was probably really early … it was 11am! No pity from Mom!!!
Then because he was tossed out of his dorm, he decided to go over to the Pryz (food hall) to grab some breakfast and on his way he had to stop at 5 different national security check points to have his ID checked and to be questioned. By the time he got to the fourth one, I guess he was rather cranky and over the questions that when asked for his ID, he gave it to him. Then when asked his name, he said JC. The guard says, so what does JC stand for? John replied, Jesus Christ. The guard says oh yeah, and where were you born. John replies Nazareth. So the guard takes down his name and information. Thus far, Father Bob hasn’t called me on that one!
