Good morning.
We’re in for a sunny Saturday, with a high of seventy-four.
So a drone pilot pesters a ram, and the ram takes revenge by smashing the drone and then chasing & butting the pilot. Who’s at fault. Readers to yesterday’s FW poll overwhelmingly placed blame on the drone pilot, with 89.47% saying the drone pilot had it coming.

On this day in 1522, one of Magellan’s ships successfully navigates the globe:
One of Ferdinand Magellan’s five ships–the Vittoria–arrives at Sanlúcar de Barrameda in Spain, thus completing the first circumnavigation of the world. The Vittoria was commanded by Basque navigator Juan Sebastian de Elcano, who took charge of the vessel after the murder of Magellan in the Philippines in April 1521. During a long, hard journey home, the people on the ship suffered from starvation, scurvy, and harassment by Portuguese ships. Only Elcano, 17 other Europeans, and four Indians survived to reach Spain in September 1522.

In what kind of building will you find the 15 x 29 ft. mural created for the husband of Beatrice d’Este?
