Are you married?

Kids?

What do you do? Is it your dream job? If not, what is?

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

What do you think are the biggest misconceptions Americans have about Italy and/or Europe?

Ok, here they come:

- Knowing that your girlfriend is going to move to live with you soon, have you really thought about how it will affect your gamming life? What about our long superbowl nights commenting every play by AIM? How long until she tells you that it's me or she?

- We have discussed this a few times already, but... what would you give to be offered a travel machine to go back in time and to become a kid in a Texan high school like the one in Friday Night Lights?

- More seriously now, what do you think about American high school and college sports, scholarships, etc compared with them (or the lack of) in Europe?

Why are Italian drivers crazy?

What is a fun place in Italy that the tourists usually miss?

What are your other hobbies besides computer gaming?

I'm sure this has been covered somewhere before...but have you ever been to America? If so, where did you go and what were your thoughts? Is "American" Italian food complete crap? If you haven't...any plans for a visit? Why or why not?

Have you done much traveling outside of Italy? Outside of Europe?
If yes, where is your favorite place you've been to in Europe? In the world?
If not, where would you most like to go?

How much do you hate the French? How come in all my trips to Italy, the men drive around on little scooters making kissing sounds at the chick I'm walking with? Is that the main form of communication?

Italian machismo...fact or fiction?

For those of you wondering...machismo:
1. a strong or exaggerated sense of manliness; an assumptive attitude that virility, courage, strength, and entitlement to dominate are attributes or concomitants of masculinity.
2. a strong or exaggerated sense of power or the right to dominate

Oooh, cool choice as I don't know much about Emiliano. To start off:

What do your friends say about you?

If you had to choose to live without one of the following, which would it be and why: TV, the internet, telephone?

What is your favorite holiday and why?

What is one unique thing about you?

Besides the obvious things such as smell, what are some of the downsides of living in a giant boot?

If Italy ever had an NFL franchise, what do you think it would be named?

We didnt get to play this year, but who would have won? Your MSU team or my Wisconin team?

And do you think penn state deserved the playoff spot over both of us?

Ferrari or Lamborghini?

You're in a train in your home town traveling at 100kph towards Rome and a train leaves Rome at 80kph, how long does it take your train to reach its destination?

What is your favorite place to visit in Italy?

Allora, che cazzo fai?

From an Italian proverb I learned, why is it bad to let the farmer know that cheese is good with pears? (Al contadino non far sapere quanto e buono il formaggio con le pere.)

Why, for good luck, do Italians say "In the ass of the whale"? (In culo alla balena)

Why do Italians have two or three cell phones per person? I saw babies in strollers sending SMS messages, and 94 year old men on cell phones when I was in Italy.

Veline, or Velone?

Is Totti as stupid (pirlo) as he appears to be in TV interviews?

and finally,

If Italian women are so damn good looking, why is the birth rate is falling in Italy?

What is the size of the family that you grew up in?

How do you feel you life is coming together at this point in your life?

Do you have any interesting people in your family tree?

What do you do for hobbies on a regular basis?

Did you grow up in a religious or spiritual household?

Are there local areas that you are least likely to visit?

Has there ever been an event in which you feared for your life?

Since I just learned that you are moving in with your girlfriend because of Icy's questions, what led you guys to make the decision to do so?

What is your given birth name (You don't have to write the full name is you are a privacy guy)?

What would be your dream job/career?

What are the good and bad memories that you reflect upon from time to time?

Because you reside in an area steeped with history, does the schools do a pretty good job teaching you about its past? And do you find that some educators tend to embellish the truth a bit?

If a group of FOFCers somehow scrounged some money to visit Italy and you gleefully volunteered to be our tour guide, where would you take us to as the must-see places?

What do you fear the most?

What are the specs on your current computer?

Do you prefer to have a lot of gadgets or a lot of software?

What other forums/blogs/message boards do you visit?

Favorite mode of transportation for vacationing?

What are your pet peeves?

What sports did you participate in?

What is your current mode of transportation?

Did you ever meet jbmagic or secretly know of his family?

How often do you travel?

Although just a message board, do you find any major differences in national culture?

Do you a pessimistic or positive outlook on life?

Do you have a strong opinion on American politics?

Do you watch a lot of local television shows, American television shows, or neither?

What do you currently do for a living? Are you a student or currently working?

How are you enjoying the multiplayer experience with FOF?

Is there one place outside of this Italy where you could easily live the rest of your life in and where would this be?

Where were you born?

What are some other game recommendations that you would suggest?

If FOF were to make your player card, how would the following categories look:
Height:
Weight:
Loyalty:
Wants Winner:
Leadership:
Intelligence:
Personality:
Popularity:
Volatility:
Health:
Seaasonal Rust:

lol

Yours I take it?

Have you ever read a werewolf thread Emiliano? It's an easy game, all you do is vote lathum day in and day out. You'll get a wolf easy if you do that.

Mine is still a ways out. New players are always a good thing, though. And, yes, Dodgerchick has it: vote lathum if you're a villager, kill blade if you're a wolf. Basic strategy right there.

jbmagic's first language is Italian -- is he real or fake?

When you and Tara were talking in Italian, were you:
a) making fun of our inability to understand any Italian, or
b) laughing about how you could have dropped us off in the middle of nowhere

Why are you afraid of pictures?

Thanks for the heads-up. I was on vacation and just got back Sunday, and thought I could sneak these in. Here's some more:

Why do you call your girlfriend Tara, when her name is Sara?

I've lived in Chicago for a few years now, but haven't got around to seeing most of the touristy places here. Have you seen most of those in Rome?

When you read WNBA jokes on here, does it get you upset?
