25.06.2010. Hollywood Night in
Rome!!!
This night will be unforgettable, thanks
to my encounters with 2 of the protagonists of some of the best movie
masterpieces I've ever seen...
First, I met Salvatore Cantalupo, 'Pasquale' the taylor of Gomorra.
Then I had dinner in a restaurant,
right in front of Reservoir Dogs' Mr. Orange: Tim Roth.
...and at the end I couldn't resist:
Me: "...excuse me, I'm so
sorry to disturb... are you Mr. Orange?" Mr Orange: "Yes I am" Me: "I am so pleased. Thank you"
24.06.2010. We
are out of the World Cup.
But I am proud to support Italy, proud of our football style and tradition.

I want to say thank you
to Germany for EinStein and My Stein.
My guardian angel.
My Regine 'Shines'
Stein.
I quit smoking some weeks
ago. Actually I never smoked so much (3-4 fags per day)...but someone
told me zero is better than four.
And some weeks ago I started a new diet, which is bringing me so far
away from my usual eating habits (which were so nasty, but cool at the
same time).
And, as if all this was not enough, I have decided to go running (jogging)
every 2 days.
I cannot say that, since I started, I am
feeling better from a global perspective, neither I am convinced that
all this is really a good deal.
But I am optimistic about the future!

On my personal dreamly path to the Universe and Universes, caught
between the twisted Stars, Time, us and the Immense Space...
... I'm trying to understand Space and Time and Special Relativity,
the principles of this Story, and how great this German was.
This videos from Youtube are quite old but really good.
Viva Napoli!
Remembering my Grandfather, and dedicated to the greatness of my land
where the original seeds of pop music could be found.

Our Mollies recently multiplied themselves.
Now the aquarium looks a bit congested, like this.
I've watched another Clint's masterpiece: Invictus.

This site
is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believe
in the neverending Space and Time.
And I think we are not alone.
Yesterday
I fell asleep thinking of the Universe and other Galaxies exploration,
and the way Asimov opened a highway in my dreams with the ending of
his Foundation
and Earth From Wikipedia I quote:
'The book states several times that the Seldon Plan does not take
into account alien influences. Combined with the ending (see above),
one could surmise that for the sequel, he planned to introduce aliens
(almost certainly from another galaxy) who would upset and possibly
destroy the Seldon Plan. It is also possible that Solarians, or possibly
the merged Daneel-Fallom itself, would have turned out to be the enemy
of humanity (as the last two paragraphs seem to suggest). However, all
his fictional citations from the Encyclopedia Galactica are dated after
the formation of the Second Galactic Empire. This meant that there could
never be irreparable damage to the plan, since, eventually, it must
return to its precalculated path. These citations also seem to give
hints to a possible future timeline. Bliss tells Trevize that there
are no written records kept by Gaia. So the very existence of the Encyclopedia
Galactica seems to indicate that Galaxia hasn't yet come into existence
by that point.'
When Mankind comes to a dead end street, the only thing to do is look
up at the Stars.
Any form
of matter, alive or lifeless, solid, gas or fluid .... is made of atoms.
And electrons never rest.
Only vacuum is still.
Honestly
it makes some strange effects to me to write with this new heading...'January
2010'!.
A new decade just started!
And what about the last one? What about years 2000?...gone faster than
a cannonball in my mind.
This Age, years 2000...
...when the Globe hit the World Wide Web,
...when I moved to Rome,
...when I got tatooed,
...when I met America,
...when Regine appeared,
...when Missione Magliana was accomplished,
...when we become World Champions (again),
...when this site was born

the 'beautiful Game', to get ready with the upcoming years.
