And I did what any girl should do when she sees a bunch of weirdos jaywalking with cameras - I went right over and said "What are you guys doing?"
Well - this is about the last thing I thought they’d say: "We are from Italy and we are introducing this roast beef from Italy to the east coast and now the west coast." Well this is an interesting marketing ploy for roast beef, I thought. "And where will this roast beef be available for purchase?" I asked, planning the YoVenice post in my head.
"Oh no. It’s not - we are bringing THIS roast beef to see the west coast."
These superheroes are bringing a chunk of roast beef on tour of the United States. And Venice was its last stop, I guess. Unless they were lugging that thing to Hawaii. And I didn’t see a cooler in their supercar, so…yuck…
Remember that I Love Lucy episode when she brought that cheese home from Italy and pretended it was her baby so she could take it on the plane?
Anyway - THIS is why we live here, right? You never know what’s going to happen.
