March 13, 2013 - The Sistine Seagull

Let me introduce you to the most persistent bird in the history of the world. Definitely does NOT help that he is white.

Respecting those that do not understand the significance, let me explain: The public had been watching the Sistine Chapel smokestack for the signal of white smoke that meant a new Pope had been elected. Black smoke meant that the Catholic Cardinals did not have successful ballots that morning or afternoon.

Makes sense, a Papal Bull would have fallen off.

The papal seal would never have made it to the roof in the first place.
