A message for Obama

Dear Barack Obama,

i really hope you will win the next US election. But if, unfortunately, it won't happened... what about coming in Italy???

That's why:

Body building disease

During these days i'm studying psichiatry (my next, boring, exam) and, 3-4 hours ago i was just reading about this kind of mental disorder:

Muscle dysmorphia

Muscle dysmorphia: a subtype of BDD, described as excessive preoccupation with muscularity and body building to the point of interference with social, educational, or occupational functioning.

So it as been quite strange to find this piece of news (with this picture) on the newspaper!

I can't imagine what a terrible cocktail made by Alzheimer's disease and body building in a 80 years old brain!

Mapo is.. (some ideas for "facebook" status)

• Thinking that yesterday it was raining also in the gym (Mompiano lost by 35 points... or maybe more!);
• Listening "La locomotiva" by Guccini, waiting for the concert;
• Starting to pray for Barack Obama (i can't live in a world ruled by the tandem Palin - Maccain!);
• Learning something about Bob Kennedy on Wikipedia (he have just seen Bobby, the movie);
• Trying to find a way to study something more about Freud for his next exam!

I need a Mario Bros!

I really love animals, especially pets. I think that sometimes they can be more intelligent than human beings. But i'm really tired to come back home and find every time a new one! This weekend it's the turtles turn!

Thursday night, just back home, I was looking for something to eat in the kitchen, so i opened the cupboard. It was too full, as usual, so a snack fell down. But, instead of the normal noise made by something that hurt on the wood, i heard something like a stone thrown in a lake... I looked down and i saw my snack floating in a tub, with two small and green turtles!!

At the moment, in my house, you can find:

- 1 dog;

- 2 cats;

- 1 big talking parrot;

- something like 100 birds (some of them are little parrots);

- 1 magpie;

- 5 or 6 chicken;

- 7 white doves;

- 2 little turles.

Much more than a farm!

That's the reason why, now, i really need a Mario Bros!

Please, don't vote for her!

Interviewer: "And under the NATO treaty, wouldn't we then have to go to war if Russia went into Georgia?"

Sarah Palin: "Perhaps so"

from NYT

I really think that nobody is reading this blog from the US. But, if it isn't so... please, don't vote for her!!

Italy... another time

Climbing the higest belfry in Europe,

walking with your girlfriend around the small streets in the old town of Cremona,

talking with one of your best friend you haven't seen by months,

watching a sunset in a park on the river Po,

having a dinner with tipical Cremona salami and nougat...

It's not so difficult to fall in love with Italy another time, after a summer far away...
