Mafia Bible? Gives "Holy" New Meaning

This was semi-interesting:

FBI probes 'Mafia Bible' for code

Italian officials have handed to the FBI a Bible that belonged to suspected Mafia kingpin Bernardo Provenzano to see whether it contains a secret code.
Provenzano, 73, was captured in Sicily in April after 43 years on the run.

The Bible found in his isolated hut contained dots, arrows and notations and investigators want to know if it is a code that will unlock other messages.

Provenzano, who allegedly took over the Sicilian Mafia in 1993, is held in a top security prison in central Italy.


I say semi, because when I read this I had this immediate thought:

When they figure it out, will they call it "Da Vinny Code"? :)
