(excerpt from andys journal from his trip to the Vatican)
Yes so apperently the Pope doesn't love all people becuase we are unable to enter his almighty church of God. Something about beinf severly underdressed. I don't know if I will ever understand that since it seems God likes everyone named mroe then he does clothes [ (ex) Adam and Eve]
Critical Thinking Questions:
1. Does the Pope have the power to execute?
2. Are his private apartments air conditioned?
3. If I wwere to try an enter naked what would happen to me?
(Friends answers)
1. Publicly the Pope does not bear the power to execute. Privately, however, he can do whatever the hell he wnats.
2. His private apartments are not only air conditioned, but they are also filled with cilly lime Jell-O.
3. First the Pope would order your exectution. Then, the bishops would make bets on how many times you would blink after your head was but off.

(excerpt from andys journal from travleings around rome)
Once again while roaming thorugh Rome we stumbled upon the trevi fountain. Now why the hell would they put a big ass fountain in front of such a nice building. I mean it's a veyr nice fountain but its overly large... With giant stone waves and fishes and horses proturding from it. The only solution is that they are hideing a large prehistoric man-eating fish underneath it. I wonder if the fish would taste good BBQ'ed.
(friends stuff in caps)
CRITICAL THINKING QUESTIONS:
1. IS THIE FISH A FRIEND OR A FOE?
2. THIS FISH-- DOES IT ACCEPT HUMAN SACRIFICES? IF SO WHO WOULD IT PERFER?
3. WOULD bbq SAUCE RUIN OR ENHANCE THE DELICATE FLAVOR OF PREHISTORIC FISH?
1. Fish is a foe but when supplied with the right sort of present could soon become good friends.
2. Human sacrifices are always in good taste. a top heavy blonde might be rather scrrumptious when tossed into the center of the pool.
3. a BBQ sauce might over power the tasty fish. A nice lemon garlic sauce however might be just the thing needed.
i AGREE LEMON- GARLIC WOULD BE PERFECT. THIS BOOK MUST NEVER BE READ BY HUMAN EYES  .
excellent lemon garlic it is! who shall seek out and kill the fish?
I THINK ... THOUGH I COULD BE WRONG THAT IF PAID WITH ENOUGH FRENCH FRIES, THE GIRL HOLDING THE PINK AND RED SHOPPING BAG, PERCHED ON THE EDGE OF THE FOUNTAIN... SHED DO IT. SHE JUST HAS THAT SACRIFICE LOOK ABOUT HER....
superb

Hey, that's Neptune in that chariot, isn't it? You'd best be careful! He's not one to trifle with! You try to catch that fish, and you just might find yourself impaled on the "business end" of his Trident (ouch!). I understand Neptune love barbecue sauce!
Welcome home, Andy! So glad to see you back safe and sound!

Yup, the Pope can do what he likes...including the jello.
I think if you and your gang showed up naked and tried to enter, you would be in more dnager of being mobbed by horny nuns or photo-flashing papparazzi, and then you'd have made the local papers...
Trevi...isn't that where they put those "3 Coins in the fountain"? Maybe that wasn't for good wishes to come truwe...maybe it was to pay off and placatre lurking pre-historic fish...
Very glad you're home safe and sound...well, safe anyhow...hehe

I want to hear about drop dead gorgeous Josh AND the coliseum AND just exactly what you DID have on that you couldn't get in the vatican.
Are there really like a zillion pigeons in that big square? I always wondered about the pigeon poop?

(excerpt from my journal on 22/7/2003)
I was sitting on the floor today minding my own buisnes quietly cutting a little more fabric off my sleep sheet. I had just stopped cutting for a few minutes when I looked down and there was thus massive bee crawling riught next to my leg. Shreiking I jumped up and landed near my bed not sure what to do. Following Brians instructions I quickly put on my sandal and moved towards the evil doer.
When i was next to the bee I realized I could not kill it while it was watching me, so I creeped around making a ciircle around the bee trying to be facing its backside. The damn thing kept turning with me though. After a few revolutions I finally had it's backside and I moved quick like a bunny and slammed my foot on him, he never knew what hit him it was a sneak attack!! But then I wasn't sure if hee really died so I screamed and jumped backwards hitting my head on the window! At the end of all this Brian took my picture It was good except for the bee guts now on the floor. Brian was kind enough to clean them up for me.

josh, he must have been about 6'1 or so blonde hair kinda on the longish side but still an 'acceptable length' for guys hair. Blueish green eyes. and really really funny. He was laughing and telling us all baout why he was now short 300 dollars. Apparently he and a friend rented one of those motorcycle/scooter things you see all over europe and he crashed his totaling the bike but coming out with only a cut up leg Which he of course proudly showed me. hes in collage at Idaho state. yeah he is great. :)too bad he is like 7 years older then me

You know what I think would be really cool? That would be for you to post a journal entry every day until you run out of journal entries to post (I realize there may be some "private" things there that you may not wish to share, and that of course is cool, too).
I doubt that I'm alone in this (especially when I say I'd like to hear more about Doug and Josh! [ ]).

I've been in St. Peter's Square, too, and wondered the same thing. There seemed to be more pigeons than people (and goodness knows there were thousands of people), but I didn't see a bit of poop! They must have clean-up crews out there overnight cleaning the place up for the next day. If so, then they obviously do an awesome job; but talk about an exercise in futility! []

(more excerpts from andys journal)
The colesseum's original use was not as an arena llike that movie Gladiator maks you think. The real purpose was as a pasta strainer for giants. Hell the Roman didn't even build the thing. Like Stone henge no one is quite sure who really created the thing. My guess is prehistoric dinosaurs actually built it. Now most people think that dinosaurs favorite food was meat, that they were carnivors. However meat was only for times when they were on the go. Like when they needed to visit Grandma Dino. Pasta however was their real cuisine hence the large strainer in the shape of the colesseum.
Critical Thinking Questions:
1. What were the Dino's favorite Pasta?
2. Why is the Colesseum no longer used as a pasta strainer?
3. Where can I purchase a Dino to cook my pasta?
Answers by friend
1. Linguine it ryhmes with "long neck" which we all know is the technical term for Dinosaur.
2. A Pasta strainer's not much of a tourist attraction...
3. They sell them on E- bay I believe

(excerpt from andys journal-- this came from an earlier section in my journal before i made up funny tsories so this is just what we did/what happened.)
Good God!! We just got back from our German castle. Berg Rheinfels. YOu would not believe how cool that was. First of all the trail leading up to the castle was very steep it was basically twisting up hill almost vertical, and we took the easy path! Then once we got up there their was just this big fricken castle looming there on the hill side.
We bought our tickets for 3 Euro each and continued inside. We wandered everywhere! I don't know what to say! We went up and down every stair case and tunnel abd crawled in all those windows that get eal narrow on one end. I think I will actually be forced to shower tonight (I didn't after all though.)
At one point we found a twisty staircase that was very dark and we didnt go up it becuase the cielling was too low (not for me!). Then at the end of the hall was a tunnel that just led o an incline. We didn't go up that either becase it looked so steep and dark and slope-like. Instead we found another staircase that was more passable. That led to a dark hall which as I led the way down we decided was the same slope we didn't wnat to walk up the first time! Instead we slid our way down the entire thing with me leading. It was funny as we were going down these little german children were trying to come up. you should have seen us trying to pass each other on this slope.
There were some open gates that led to the old mine tunnels but we didn't finish going through them bcuase they were scary as hell and I was the only one short enough to pass when bent over comfortably.
more later my mom wnats the comp

I always thought that Dino, and all the other Flintstones and Rubbles, prefered 'elbow macaroni.' Afterall, hardly an episode went by where you didn't see Fred or Barney give each other a little nudge with an elbow. Then again I guess I'm not the world's foremest expect on pre-historic Italian cuisine.
Think good thoughts,
