What's so great about the Sistine Chapel again? <br />I remember something about some Sybils but you can get that from Virgil.

Re:so unfair
Like any other art, it is so much more impressive to see the real thing compared to a photograph of it. The experience can't be compared. I would love to see that too. Yes, your friend Mike had better bring back some nice souvenirs for you!!

Re:so unfair
oooooh it would be SO cool to have the sistine chapel ceiling as my new apartment ceiling (think it'd fit? I could move to a bigger apartment!)

Re:so unfair
You'll need a larger apartment. But then, with a ceiling like that... would you ever get out of bed?

Re:so unfair
no, but that would give me a great excuse to be lazy... "i'm studying art, really!"
