Have Fun, Bring back presents

  Has anyone ever checked into any Italian LARPs?

Two years ago, they almost didn't let me back in the country.  Having a name like Michael Smith is not fun in the age of terror.

I've gotten some pushback from my name as well if people aren't paying attention to the spelling (applying for jobs is interesting). I can imagine Mike Smith being a lot worse though. Enjoy your trip, please share pictures!

You need to change your name Mike.  I suggest dropping Michael and switching to John.

Maybe change the last name to "Doe" to go along with it.

73. Not allowed to name my cudgel Ceremonial Whoopass Stick.
74. My thief's battle cry is not "Run And Live"

Instead of John, how about Will?

When I was in  Italy, I tried a lot of wine and was introduced to sparkling  water.  I expect a full beer report from you.

Italians, are known for many great things... beer is not one of them.  I did find some nice Brooklyn Lager over here though.. at imported prices :-)

I ate four of the best things I've ever eaten in Italy, so if you have the opportunity I'd suggest:

- Deep fried artichoke (al guidia)
- Buffalo mozzarella (good on everything)
- prosciutto san daniele...do it.
- Lardo pizza. Seriously. Anything with Lardo. It's like bacon, but better. Way better.

Better than bacon?  Light the pyre, for sacrilege has been spoken.
Which cities will you be visiting?

Just got back... I spent a short time in Verona, one day in Venice, two days in Florence, two days in Rome, One day in Pompii and Sorento, and one day in a small town I think called Serra.  That's not including travel days.  It was fun.  Personally, I think as you go south the food and the women get better.  Or maybe just more like what I am used to.

Welcome back, Mike.  Florence was my favorite eating city and the women were wonderful period.  Not like Prague, which has the most beautiful and fit women in Europe, but still very good.
