<p>By Christen</p>
<p><strong>Justice</strong><br />
Edward is for me<br />
Why else would he haunt my dreams?<br />
And for no one else.</p>
<p><strong>Drawde</strong><br />
Your love never dies<br />
A heart full of pained longing<br />
You sure are sexy.</p>
<p><em>Here&#8217;s one for Jacob&#8230;</em></p>
<p><strong>Sunny Day</strong><br />
Fun, sweet and true<br />
A love filled with adventure<br />
Jacob knows you well.</p>
<p><em>And here&#8217;s one for the Newborns&#8230;</em></p>
<p><strong>Newborn Hunters</strong><br />
We sure are thirsty<br />
Our ideas invade your world<br />
You can&#8217;t escape us.</p>
<p><em>Here&#8217;s a shameless plug&#8230;</em></p>
<p><strong>Throughput</strong><br />
Hear us on iTunes?<br />
Another hungry Newborn<br />
Writes us a review.</p>
<p><em>and for dej&#8230; to boost his spirits in the pokey.</em></p>
<p><strong>Dejy Goat Gruff</strong><br />
Heady with freedom<br />
We all adore your antics<br />
Lunch is never served.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Just in from <a href="http://www.twilightnewborns.com/2009/05/dejeuner-italy-adventure/">Chris, our Fan of the Week Emeritus who was visiting Montepulciano, </a></strong><strong><a href="http://www.twilightnewborns.com/2009/05/dejeuner-italy-adventure/">Italy</a>, this week:</strong></p>
<div id="attachment_845" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 297px"><img class="size-full wp-image-845" title="dej_boats" src="http://www.twilightnewborns.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/dej_boats.jpg" alt="dej_boats" width="287" height="215" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Dej takes in the Italian sights</p></div>
<p>&#8220;I got to Montepulciano before shooting began.  The town is so pretty!  The square was outfitted with red banners, and extras in red cloaks.  I saw the procession of extras get all together and organized.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think I &#8216;saw&#8217; the Twilight crew.  I was taking pics, and fans were behind a barricade.  I squeezed into a doorway.  Police and crew joined arms and ferreted the crowds away from the center of the narrow street in front of the tower.</p>
<p>&#8220;Then this dark windowed van crept through the crowds.  They were yelling &#8216;Robert&#8217;.  The van came within a foot of me.  I could only make out profiles.  I did not see RPattz&#8217;s crazy do. He must have already had hair and makeup.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am very sure I saw KStew and Dakota Fanning&#8217;s profiles.  DK was the tiny one.  KStew was the bored thin chick with stringy hair.  The security held up a blanket and let the passengers into a building.</p>
<p>&#8220;I also visited Volterra.  Montepulciano is prettier.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Thanks SO MUCH to Chris to send these reports into Team Newborns! </strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So you know <a href="http://www.twilightnewborns.com/2009/05/dejeuner-flys-to-italy-takes-on-secret-identity/" target="_blank">Dejeuner, urr, <em>Pranzo</em>, has skipped out </a>on the Midwest and has flown to Italy for a little vacay. It just so happens that he&#8217;s there during the Italian production of the New Moon movie. Lucky goat.</p>
<p>But Pranzo has been instructed to play it cool. Exact directives: <a href="http://www.twilightnewborns.com/2009/01/photo-with-the-soups-joel-mchale/" target="_self">Do not act ANYTHING like Melissa or Christen when in the presence of fame</a>. Being our podcasting mascot, we expect a call from the U.S. Embassy at any moment.</p>
<p><strong>This report came in from Chris, our Fan of the Week Emeritus, who is goat-sitting Pranzo on his Eurotrip:</strong></p>
<div>Pranzo and I are having a great time in Crete.  The local goats are somewhat troublesome, blocking roadways and such.  But they have been peaceful with Pranzo so far.</div>
<div id="attachment_832" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 358px"><img class="size-full wp-image-832" title="cretiangoat1" src="http://www.twilightnewborns.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/cretiangoat1.jpg" alt="cretiangoat1" width="348" height="229" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Dej&#39;s Cretian Goat Brother</p></div>
<div>We are based out of Chania, near the American Naval base.  Pranzo has been fraternizing with the seamen.  Pranzo and I visited Heraklion and the Palace of Knossos, the setting of the legend of the Minotaur and Hercules.</div>
<div>I got yelled at by the museum administration at the Minoan Archiological Museum in Heraklion for attempting to capture Pranzo taking in a statute of Hades and Cerberus (the three headed dog).</p>
<p>Curator: &#8220;What are you doing?  No no, put that little dog back in your bag! Only pictures of the pieces plese.&#8221; (Scowl, frown, shaking head).  Enter the Twilight shame.</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now we know why <a href="http://www.twilightnewborns.com/2009/02/origins-of-dejeuner/">Déjeuner</a> is <a href="http://www.twilightnewborns.com/2009/05/sexy-vampire-it-gu/">nowhere</a> to be found! He has skipped the country and has flown to the Mediterranean  to try to catch up to his BFF Robert Pattinson as the New Moon cast starts their Italian shoot at Montepulciano.</p>
<div id="attachment_825" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 433px"><img class="size-full wp-image-825" title="dejincrete" src="http://www.twilightnewborns.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/dejincrete.jpg" alt="dejincrete" width="423" height="317" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Dej makes his European debut in Crete. May God protect them.</p></div>
<p>Darn that goat!</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve should have known Dej has been working the phones behind our backs and hitched a ride with Chris, our Fan of the Week Emeritus from Las Vegas.</p>
<p>We love Chris, so we&#8217;re hoping that Dej plays it cool while he&#8217;s travelling the globe. We just don&#8217;t have the funds to bail him out if he gets thrown into Italian <em>prigione</em>. That&#8217;s prison for the rest of us. <em><br />
</em></p>
<p>The Italians don&#8217;t mess around. Especially with goats. Cuz they eat goats.</p>
<p>And apparently, Dej has absorbed the culture so much, he insists on being called <em>Pranzo</em> while he&#8217;s there. Of course, <em>pranzo</em> means lunch in Italian. And that is what he&#8217;s going to be when he gets backs to us Newborns.</p>
<p>Stay tuned as Pranzo as he makes his way around Italy. And keep our fingers crossed for a Pranzo/Rob encounter!</p>

<p><strong>Meat of the Discussion: The theme of courtly love in the Twilight Series</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Description of courtly love on Wikipedia (<em>Wik it!</em>)</li>
</ul>
<blockquote><p><strong>Courtly love</strong> was a medieval European conception of nobly and chivalrously expressing love and admiration.[1] Generally, courtly love was secret and between members of the nobility.[2] It was also generally not practiced between husband and wife.</p>
<p>Source: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courtly_love" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p><strong>Stages of courtly love</strong><br />
•    Attraction to the lady, usually via eyes/glance<br />
•    Worship of the lady from afar<br />
•    Declaration of passionate devotion<br />
•    Virtuous rejection by the lady<br />
•    Renewed wooing with oaths of virtue and eternal fealty<br />
•    Moans of approaching death from unsatisfied desire (and other physical manifestations of lovesickness)<br />
•    Heroic deeds of valor which win the lady&#8217;s heart<br />
•    Consummation of the secret love<br />
•    Endless adventures and subterfuges avoiding detection</p>

Yay! The bad news is he really wasn&#8217;t happy about it. But we can&#8217;t blame him. We&#8217;re the Rodney Dangerfield of Twilight podcasters.</p>
<p>We tried to get our own photo with Joel. But operator error prevented the photo from being taken, so this is the best we have, which is hilarious. Thank you, Joel, for not hurting our precious Déjeuner. We love you!</p>
