Good luck with your meeting with Mario. Here's a funny story you can joke with him about. My aunt taught foreign languages at Nazareth High School for almost 40 years. She had Mario as a student way back when (my aunt is now 93 years old). Anyway, Mario's girl friend was supposedly a very sweet young thing that all the teachers thought the world of...equally, they thought Mario was a nice enough young guy, but lacked real ambition...all he liked to do was work on cars and race them, in their eyes kind of a waste. One day several of the teachers (my aunt was one), got the sweet girlfriend aside and begged her to dump that Mario. She was wasting her time with him and he would never amount to anything. Fortunately, she ignored their pleas and wound up marrying Mario and she is now, of course, Michael's mother. I believe he has since divorced her, but that unfortunately happens in many homes. By the way, if you ever get to Nazareth, check out Mario's (and for that matter, Michael's) home. "Palace" does not do either home justice as a description.....incredibly gorgeous, wealthy estates. And by the way, they all love Mario in Nazareth. My aunt still laughs about her lousy judgement. Not bad for.."no ambition."
