Italy

 



Go figure, everyone's in Italy, living large and escaping the beautiful strip malls and flyovers of our cultural ascendancy for something else, and who can blame them? 

I texted an old music buddy, who's set up in an Italian castle, "Maybe they need to turn that town square into a parking lot. Ffs, get onnit." He clicked between contracts and replied, "Look. Castle ceiling. Standard." Have a look:




Huh. But that's not all. Ma LSP and several sisters are in Italy, living it up on the Adriatic. I guess Texas wasn't good enough, they just had to go one better:



Feeling badly left out, I drove through Italy but didn't stop. Let the reader understand.



Italy Texas, a fine place to be. Then there's this town, where the kids are staying:



So unattractively awful, why hasn't this been torn down and turned into a strip mall? I mean to say, what's wrong with these people? As we reflect on that, here's a castle garden.



Soothing, don't you think?

  7. That's weird, Infidel, haven't been to Texan Paris. Must correct that.

    Italy had a walk in model of the Enterprise spaceship. They tore it down, fools.

  8. Rumor has it that Jules is headed to Italy once she's finished with Switzerland. I don't know if she will stay at a castle, but I wouldn't put it past her.
