GEORGE LETTERMAN'S TOP 10 LIST

Top 10 things that I've learned in Italy (by George)

10. The people in Italy are passionate, but the mosquitoes are even more passionate.
9. At a bird sanctuary, it's illegal to "molest the hawks" (somethings just don't translate well).
8. Lots and lots of gelato does not cause you to loose weight.
7. It's a sin to take a picture in the Vatican...picture proof to follow.
6. A recent study by the Steirer Institute on a train to Monterosso found that 2 out of 2 Italian women think American speed dating is a brilliant idea and should be brought to Italy.
5. It's called the "Trevi" fountain, not the "Trendy" fountain.
4. Spell Check in Italy does not work fer English.
3. Speaking Spanish in a daze of jet lag to a butcher and then laughing at yourself only makes the butcher mad (if he thinks you're laughing at him as he doesn't understand spanish or english).
2. Ripping a piece of paper in half to tell a butcher to cut the cheese in half will not help him to understand.
1. Tuscany is beautiful
