    Three of my cousins homes were destroyed in that earthquake.


    Let me tell you, Abruzzo, especially L'Aquila, has some of the best scenic driving roads after the Amalfi Coast.

    @Marywithoutu: I figured he's been around the Italians long enough to pick up the accent. Plus, if it were with a German accent it would be more like If you vant a popsicle zen VER ARE YOUR PAPERS?

    I think this is the first time I've ever seen the Pope's shoes. Don't you get a pair from the same shoemaker when you buy a Zonda? No wonder millions line up to kiss his feet.

    I wonder if it has custom knee pads built into the floor so his younger subjects can properly praise him?

    Unless he's got a really, really rugged delivery route, I would think that the florist would be better served by an E Klasse Touring 4matic (the one with the trick slide-out load floor in the rear).


    That being said, perhaps he wanted to use the G-Wagon after-hours as a ride to his Leather-and-Levi club get-togethers...
