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.

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.)

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

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!
