Ariana: You've never seen an episode of Gilligan's Island? Is that even legal? I mean, Cheers I can understand, but Gilligan's Island? That just.... wrong. How will you ever understand the "three-hour tour" jokes?

I'm totally with you on the Mission: Impossible thing, though.

Being bitten by a zebra sounds like it would really suck. And be scary.

However, congrats on lying to the Pope's representative.. although if God was really on his side, don't you think he would have been able to tell you were lying?
