i miss munti already

farewell my temporary isub. so fickle. so fleeting.
you'll be sorely missed.

yes, ladies and gentlemen, the undies got whipped out again

steve's now seriously considering filing for divorce. either that or forcing bruni to go commando

no, nappy, don't do it!

ok bruni's a leetle more drunk here...

and clearly having a good time despite those neuroses earlier. i think the shoes have even come off by now

no, that is flavia's hair

i did have to post this sasquatch(TM) sighting though. (thanks jav)

patrick, and co. in rome - sans mullet!

behind door number two

the `other,' slightly more...subdued room. to be fair to the people who spent the evening in a stupor on the sofa, rumor has it some of them got a little luckier at the after party.

i can still hear it ringing in my ears...``sullo stesso foglio!''

luca and valentina do something akin to the locomotion

bruni's not that drunk yet. wait til a little later

i also had to crop flavia out of a lot of the party pics. she must have been really hyper. and ubiquitous. she's in them all, and though i love her to bits, there is already one blog out there devoted to vanity shots of her

our host for the evening, joined by the indomitable domenico

steve's thinking: what's nappy doing with that big bowl of tomatoes?

let's get this party started

flash sports by far the flashest top at the party. and honestly, no one thought orsola would even show.

meet the Kantors

currently residing in gainesville florida, recently moved there from austin, texas and soon to head off to oklahoma city.

sometimes i don't miss the states at all

the sloth that ate maremma

``zzzzzzzzz are there any chips left? zzzzzzzzzzzz''
i wish i'd thought to pull the post-bachelor-party-prank on nappy on the ride home in the car:

the morning (afternoon)-after postmortem

brewsta, oats and crowbar sittin' in a tree

whoever this guy is, he's a happy party-crasher

you'll poke your eye out...

..or you'll suffer concussions and broken fingers

the first of many pileups

the bday girl gets a lift

fractures and concussions soon to ensue

laura parties through the jet-lag and compound hangovers

sporty spice, a not-so-closeted metallica fan

amelia - a new addition to the gang

michael and naps - he, with one of a chain of smokes and she, awake for 2 of the 5 minutes she was conscious all weekend

club Maremma Maiale

nothing like an impromptu birthday bash

paris: the home of taches and handbags

and this is what she's done in the last 5 years. a little publicity never hurt

an unexpected reunion

giulia, whom i hadn't seen in more than 5 years, and joe, trekking in from paris

off to tuscany

the weekend started off well-enough, with only one car getting stuck on the driveway of hell, having made it safely through the crossroads of death

b: while you were sleeping...

can't quite remember the sentiment behind this gesture

mmhmmm

the BIS rules - Viva Basel

when scooters explode outside the office

any opportunity to show off alberto's 2-week old tattoo

the mark of a good celebration - the birthday girl gets a little help from her friends and family

grounds for divorce in most countries

bruni's underwear make the rounds

`hey, look what i found in my coat pocket!'

puff, puff, pass

a year older and, hopefully, wiser

i & c, back in rome, and sexy as ever

two thirds of the Spanish contingent

Elena, dazed and confused, has trouble choosing a nationality
