tuscan region. one of wife's good friends is getting married. her family rented out some villa for the entire weekend. we were going to hit london on our way back, but then we realized my seed is potent so we're only going for the week.
only thing I'm worried about is the language barrier. I've never been to europe. I have heard that everyone speaks english, but I will believe that when I see it
Not everyone speaks English, but most speak at least a little bit. Toscana is pretty touristy so you'll be fine. You will have a spectacular time. Try to go to a town called Montepulciano. Most beautiful place I've ever seen. Get ready to drink tons of vino.
My wife can speak a little German, so we're pretty good where people speak Italian or German. We've been to French-speaking places and it gets a little sketchy.
My wife has been to europe a bunch of times for work. She doesn't speak anything other than english and she said she's never had an issue.
thanks for the tips. We fly into rome and then have a 2 hour drive I believe. That should be pretty cool. Do they drive on right side of road? last night there we are staying right in rome. I'm looking forward to that.

definitely most excited about the wine :thumbup:
Yes, right side. They drive fast. Although I heard something about a new nationwide camera system to enforce speed limits, which really sucks. Been a couple years since I've been there.
They do NOT coast in the left lane. Don't get in the left lane unless you're passing, and do your pass quickly. If you're gonna get in the left lane and you see someone approaching in your mirror, just wait for them to pass and then get in the left lane. Don't even THINK about passing on the right, especially a truck. I found most drivers there are much better than here. Being an aggressive driver is helpful when you get there. It's kind of an adventure.

i love how the trade has paid dividends so quickly.
pence just looks like an old school baseball player. love the high stirrups. should be a rule in mlb that they should not be allowed to wear their pants falling off their fucking cleats. i hate that shit.
the guy can flat-out play. i'll be rooting for him & oswalt (and Berkman...even though he went to the f'n Cardinals :evil: ) as long as they're in the bigs.

good to hear about the driving. I will be fine with that. sounds refreshing. I never understood why keep right pass left is such a hard concept for people here to master (especially in PA)
Speaking of Pence, I was bummed to see that the trade wasn't reflected in today's latest MLB The Show roster update. Guess I won't be using him for another week.
that's why they need to bring rollins back. wow, what a play
I'm fairly confident he's coming back. They wouldn't be the Phillies without him.

gotta love manuel using stutes for 2 innings in a game the phils are losing.
what a dumb ass
Should've brought In Herndon so we would've been down 5-1 instead.

Can you imagine how exhilarating this shit must be for Hunter Pence? Dude was on the worst team in the league and now he's in all these thrilling ballgames with the odds-on World Series favorite.

2 nice wins in a row. playoffs cant get here soon enough
looks like oswalt to pitch friday or saturday. I don't see the rush, but I guess that's good news
He's a pro making a lot of money and he's ready to go. Get him in there so he's in a nice groove for the playoffs.

fucking great win....how bout that johnny mayberry?!
this one reminded me of that 09 division series. good stuff.
30 over .500.....7 up on the braves. life is good right now
Damn that was an awesome game! My sister and bro-in-law were there - I was making fun of them.
Hopefully tonight is Kendrick's last start until garbage time at the end of September.

I think "dong" is more of a slang term for "penis" than "homerun"

how do you know fixer didn't mean penis?
I really hope he gets his first HR before the alternative. That could be the one thing that would really put a damper on the trade
haha, you beat me to it.

kid threw 40 pitches. I guess charlie thought this was a playoff game.
Manuel quote from today...
Manuel said he is concerned about overworking rookie Michael Stutes and lefty Antonio Bastardo.
