Attack of the Killer Stacks of Chairs!!
The Swiss Guard went on red alert as St. Peter's Square was invaded by quadrupedal robot drones.
Not sure of the crowd to expect for the ultimate showdown of PB16 vs. Pelosi the Vatican set out extra chairs.
In an effort to accommodate those of all sizes, the Vatican set out chair towers so the "little people" could see the Pope.
Unbeknownst to many, some Vatican officials have a "Princess-and-the-pea" streak.
Put them back away, thank God. The DNC went to Denver.
Chair-ubim.
Chairmen from Mars invade the Vatican
Chair-ity begins at Rome.
I vote for PB16 vs. Pelosi
Remnants of all the failed attempts to build a chair to St. Peter
For the long-legged ofcourse and the special mass for 'clowns on stilts'.
HOW could it have happened? Holy jumpin'stilt-circus/stilt-walkers.com ! They have come to town for their own "stretch your imagination" Circus Mass.
"The convention of disenfranchised pro-life voters scheduled for Aug 29th was oddly vacant after the announcement of Sarah Palin as GOP VP. Event organizers were shocked."
At last a solution to "Daddy, I can't see the Pope!" "Giovannetto, Daddy's shoulders are getting tired, he can't hold you on them all morning!"
What? The rapture happened and nobody told me! Looks like I've been left behind.
Modified Papal voting measure:
"....If, after a further seven ballots, a two-thirds majority is not achieved, the Cardinals will compete in a chair-stacking contest, winner-take-all."
"Hi, we're here to meet the Chair of Peter!"
The invasion of the chair people!
Sedes Vacantes
A Protestant demonstration representing the common belief that Catholics worship (along with Mary, the Saints, statues, the popes, etc) ... pews??
Evidence that the Swiss guards have too much time on their hands...
"Pope Benedict hurriedly sets about preparations for the visit of the Men's U.S. Basketball team."
The Vatican really knows how to prepare for (or celebrate) an 'ex cathedra' pronouncement from Pope Benedict XVI.
FWIW, my vote is for "Chair-ubim." And Aristotle is a way-cool name.
Wrapping up last night's musical chairs was a tall order.
CHAIR-CONFERENCE
SIGHTSEEING CHAIR TOURISTS AT THE VATICAN
Dear chairmen and chairwomen in Christ, ...
Since this is a PAPIST blog, can I vote for MARK G. AT 12/12!
From the archives ...
Guy #1: Oh crap! The Council is being held INDOORS.
Guy #2: Yeah, we're opening windows, not tearing down walls.
Guy #3: Should we move the chairs inside?
Aristotle's Chair-ubim gets it.
LOL msproule! That's great!
What's the opposite of rearranging chairs on the Titanic? Rearranging chairs on the Barque of Peter.
OR!
What happened when Office Depot sponsored the miniseries about Lot's Wife (based on a true story)
OR!
"Marini! I told you that this is the Seat of the Holy See, not See all the Holy Seats!"
BUT!
msproule is still my favorite.

Church officials today continued their preparations for mass immigration from the Anglican Communion following the Lambeth Conference.
"Chair-ubium", groan groan groan. It gets my vote!
33,000 Protestant chairs gathered at St. Peters today to protest the ongoing claims of authority made by the Chair of St. Peter.
"All chairs are equal! All chairs are equal!"
One or more Jewish carpenters were called in to control the disturbance.
Imperial Walkers! Imperial Walkers! We'll have to fly through their legs with cables to mess them up.
THE SERVANT'S HEART OF STACKING CHAIRS...explained by John L.Allen,Jr. at: http://www.ncrcafe.org/node/2073
This article is not a joke, by the way, but it is very good/interesting.
Accept no substitutes -- there's only one Tower of Babel.
My vote goes to Mark G
"Hi, we're here to meet the Chair of Peter!"
When they stack up the chairs and they all go home/
You know the Pope is no longer in Rome /
But summer's almost over and he'll soon be back /
So its a good thing that we've left them stacked!
I know, I need to work on the meter: poetry is not my strong point.
I guess this is how you make a second class relic of the Chair of Peter.
stacks of chairs,arriving for the Feast of the Chair of St. Peter,milled about in confusion after realizing they had the date completely wrong.
haha, can't think of anything in particular, but it reminds me of the black monoliths from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
"If you stack them, they will come."
