***The Pope's House*** - 11-27-2006, 09:23 AM

On Saturday, two former colleagues of my dad visited us. I had to act as a chauffeur and drive them around since they were all alcoholics and were planning on drinking beer wherever they went (my dad is an ex-brewmaster). We used the Autobahn to go to Marktl am Inn where the current Pope was born.

The two guests were from the Philippines and they've never been on the Autobahn before. I brought the E320 up to 220 km/h and one of them sat next to me and out of the corner of my eye, I could see him grip the roof grip with all his might. I wish I could have gone faster but my dad told me to slow down.

These are the pictures of his house with my dad and his two friends posing in them.

am Inn is the name of the river. The river is actually called the INN, but the am in Germans means at / on. So my town in English would be called Mühldorf at the / on the Inn.

There's also:

Aschau am Inn
Braunau am Inn


Are you Eastern Orthodox? I'm Roman Catholic but I am not religious at all. I don't go to church and I don't read the Bible.

Anytime.

That's where my dad worked. He's got a serious alcohol problem because he drinks on average 7 beers a day. He loves the taste and the social side. Good thing he doesn't get drunk though.

Good to know. I am not very religious because I went to a religious school and morning Chapel and monthly Eucharist annoyed me big time. Especially the singing parts.
