How to Watch the Pope 24/7 -- Online
Well Pope Benedict XIV (he'll always be Ratzinger to us) is here (as in, the United States), and, more specifically, in New York City. Now, some of you might be wondering... how can I get my Pope fix 24/7 while the supreme pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church is here in the Big Apple? Luckily, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn's Prayer Channel has you covered with its WatchThePope.com Web site.
Oh yes, this site offers 24-hours of unfettered, obsessive Pope-stalking. While you can't watch the Pope sleep, you can watch documentaries and special features on the Pope if you decide to pop by at 3am. Or, if you feel like doing a little role-playing, then check out the set of printable "fold your own mitre" instructions (warning PDF).
But if nothing else, WatchThePope.com's lasting legacy on this Earth will be its marvelous marketing campaign. Check out the severe yet hilarious print ads in the gallery below (our personal favorite: "See the Pray-by-Pray), and the wonderful, almost Python-esque TV spot above with the URL sung by a stereotyped sounding Italian monk.
