How's that for sophistication?

When I went to Italy, and I finally found myself sitting on a bench in front of that painting in the Uffizi, the museum staff shooed me out early and I've been bitter about Florence ever since.

You'd be better off at the freaking World of Coke.


(Not really about the World of Coke, but I'm not a florence fan. That I really mean.)

At least you got into the Uffizi, we didn't make it as the line was 2 hours long to get in.

I'm more of a Caravaggio fan myself.

Really, Drolefille, really?

This totally makes up for the Indy car thing.

Doesn't it seem to you that Caravaggio and Bernini should be more famous than they are?

(Did you see the recent PBS deal on Caravaggio? I didn't but I ended up having an interesting conversation with my mom about chiaroscuro because she saw it.)

We never got in to see it either, although my favorite is still the Birth of Venus.

I think I'm going to dress up as Zephyrus for Halloween.

That would rock. I'm interested in the details.

Don't you really want to call it Venus on the Half shell? You know you do.

I do indeed!:) And you know what goes great with Venus on the Half shell? A nice bucket of ice cold Budweiser!

Lol I did not see that. (woot chiaroscuro) I learned about him first in art class and fell in love. I got separated from my group in Rome because I HAD to take a picture of one of his paintings in a church. (It said no pictures but no one else was listening) I walked all the way back from Saint Luigi dei Francesi's to the Spanish steps. That is not a short walk, but I didn't know the buses well enough to try them.

There are actually 3 Caravaggios there.

Just make sure it is plain, regular Budweiser...not like, Budweiser Select or anything.

Can you even get Natty Light in a bottle? Baby, I think we're talking straight our of the can, which might even be a step down from straight out of the bottle.

How about out of a plastic pitcher or straight from the tap? (into a RED solo cup).

Two words, people: keg stand.
