What makes you think that I would want to be socialized by these dreary boring Sicilians? Well, you can't pick your relatives or your high school classmates. They clutter my place uninvited with their Sicilian junk, and then expect me to clean up their mess later. I don't speak Sicilian language so I cannot do that, not that I speak Maltese either. That is just not my problem. I doubt that I would ever go there, even though the hot and dry Mediterranean climate might be similar to that of Southern California.
