Somewhat in response to this: http://www.ubersite.com/m/56014
and this: http://www.ubersite.com/m/56028
These were taken on my graduation trip to Italy this past May. Top left should be pretty obvious but for those that can't figure it out it's Venice. Bottom left is in the Pantheon and the ones on the right are in Positano which is a resort town on the Amalfi Coast.
I've been told that a couple of these look like they could be postcards.
Let me know what you think Uber.

===================
No, both are in Positano, top looking down on the Med and the bottom is looking back to the town from the water. Going back to Sorrento by boat we passed by Capri.
And yes, Pepsi does suck in both cases. Although I do prefer Cherry Pepsi over Cherry Coke...

There's another rating you can cancel out for your associate. But who will cancel out this rating?
I don't know, but what I ultimately hope to accomplish with this very post is a revolutionary chain reaction that will be not unlike the film Pay It Forward.
