For those who wonder about musical content and Pope Sicola, the following
jingle adapted from the original.

Pope Sicola hits the spot,
12 Apostles, that's a lot,
Three Wise men and a Virgin too,
Pope Sicola is the man for you.

All of us old timers in the USA remember the original which was sung
incessantly on the radio back in the good old days:

Pepsi Cola hits the Spot
12 Full ounces that's a lot
Twice as much for a nickel too,
Pepsi Cola is the drink for you.

Ah, those good old radio days and all those singing commercials when Pepsi
was 12 ounces and Coke, six ounces, both costing a 5 cents.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
