He and I are like this (picture me with my fingers crossed tightly).

6. This will be my second trip
It's an incredible city, a place everyone should visit, but not live there. It's too close to the Vatican, and people are quite backwards in their thinking. You really need to go north to Milan or Venice, or even Florence to get a more cosmopolitan flair. That said, it makes me not want to live there, but I could visit again and again.

9. Very homophobic....
...and they're not really friendly. It's strange, they really tend to keep to themselves. It's different when you go up north--they're more used to people intermingling and coming from different countries and cultures. As a result, the north has a much better standard (financially) of living.

12. Yes.
Please thank him for all of his service over the years, wish him the best of health, and ask him to pray for the people of the United States as we are now in our hour of most need.

May God bless.

14. My relationship with the Pope runs hot and cold...
...we were best buddies as he daily slammed Dumbo's build-up to the Iraqi invasion, but then we disagreed over his vocal opposition to homosexuality. Both will be on my agenda when we meet.
