Here is the Google Street Map of the street where I lived for six weeks in Rome, Italy, I lived on Via Urbana...

I lived right across the street from the Saint Louis College of Music.

It was cool.

It would be cool to live in Italy, and make films at Cinecitta, and have a night club in Rome...

And there was a vineyard and winery for sale in Tuscany, Italy, that had an old castle with many rooms, and I wanted to buy it, and then I could always have many guests and we could drink wine and we could solve the problems of the world. And we could write movie scripts, etc. And I could have a recording studio for my musician friends, so they could record at my castle. Etc. And the winery makes Chianti wine, so it is a money making business. 

We will see what happens.

All that I need to do is to make my movie script into a film, and get my poetry book published. And then the whole world will open up. The opportunities will be bountiful.

Salute,

Tony V.

When I was in Rome, Italy, the people in the Hostel watched the Italian version of MTV, and so you got to see all of the American stars talk about how much they loved Italy. Leonardo DiCaprio was on the Italian version of MTV, and a million other American stars, and they all talked about how much they loved Italy. And the Italian version of MTV seemed more interesting to me than the American version.

Of note, MTV needs to bring back the music. It is after all "MUSIC TELEVISION."

In Italy many of the businesses close on Sunday to observe the Sabbath, and to allow all of the workers to go to Church. And there are beautiful Churches everywhere in Rome.

It is different here in the USA, although the Jews in Beverly Hills observe their Sabbath, and many Jewish businesses close during their Sabbath. But, most people watch football here in the USA on Sunday. We even have horse racing at Santa Anita and at Los Alamitos.

And it is different in Italy with how the people behave, they are more kind and Christian than here in the USA. They help the homeless people, and they are kind to their neighbors like it says in the Bible. There is zero crime in Rome, and they help all of their people. You can feel the love in Rome.

It is cool here in Anaheim, the people are very loving, but Italy is different. Some of my best friends growing up were Italian-Americans, and I have always loved the Italians. And the Princess, Charlotte Casiraghi of Monaco, had an Italian father, he was an industrialist, he died when she was a little girl, and she loves Italy too, like I do. I bet the Princess will like Anaheim too though, she will probably love Disneyland, and we have some good restaurants and stuff, and we can have parties at my apartment complex. I bet the Princess would love Malibu too, like I do. (Everyone loves Malibu, Princess Diana was going to move to Malibu, she was buying a house next door to Olivia Newton John on PCH, everyone in Malibu was excited to have Diana as a neighbor, but then she died in an auto accident, everyone was sad.)

Anyhow, Italy is great, and on Sunday everyone goes to Church. If I had a movie production office in Rome, and a vineyard and winery in Tuscany, I would have to close the businesses on Sunday, and I would have to give all of the workers Sunday off.

If Disneyland was in Rome, it would be closed on Sunday.

Salute,

Tony,

I think you allow your love for Catholicism to obscure reality.

I will grant you that Anaheim doesn't look as good, but they have far less data:

Also... why do you think having Disneyland closed on your sabbath is a good thing in a pluralistic society? How is that fair or appropriate?!
