PopeWatch: Gobble! Gobble!

On a chaotic recent morning at the Vatican:

 

Pope:  Is it safe to go out?

Swiss Guard:  I think so Holiness.  We have shooed them into another section and deployed reinforcements to hold them back.

Pope:  Their cries are deafening!

Swiss Guard:  They are loud Holiness.

Pope:  Was anyone hurt?

Swiss Guard:  Five cardinals were last seen being chased by them.  Five Swiss Guards are reporting minor injuries.

Pope:  How did they get in?

Swiss Guard:  Unknown currently Holiness.

Pope:  Execute them all!  I want no survivors!

Swiss Guard:  Yes, your Holiness.  What should we do with the bodies?

Pope:  Eat them and give the remainder not eaten to the poor.

Swiss Guard:  Five hundred fat American turkeys will be plenty of good eating!

Pope:   Yanquis locos!  They are, como se dice, gas lighting me!

And with that PopeWatch will be on Thanksgiving hiatus until November 29.
