f: Excuse me, Mr. Hero.
g ...
f: Hey, Mr. Hero?
g: ah you said to me then. Hello. you want?
f: forgive me, I did not want to bother. is that I need to talk to someone about something. her, I think, is the right person.
g (approaches, limping): OK, tell everything. but no longer dare to call me Mr. hero. Give me of you.
f: Herr er .. oops, sorry. anyway I'll be right down to it, if I can. do not really know how to say it without sounding offensive. the problem is that all this fluttering of flags, this wave of tricolor, all these celebrations, well, I have left a bit 'uneasy. I do not know why. until a few months ago thought sacrosanct, proper and important to celebrate this anniversary, it seemed a very nice thing to do. now that is just past, insisted this swirl of white red and green, the thing here, I do not know how to say, left me confused and perplexed.
g: I understand what you're getting.
f: (raises eyebrows) really?
g: yes. I had time to think about it too, long time. do not get me wrong, I am very pleased to have done this. but sometimes I take the despair and think, who made me do?
f: What do you mean?
g: (lights a cigar, calmly) you see, this country can celebrate many things: the beauty of its landscapes, its artists and its culture, its exports, its good food, its magnificent Constitution. even his country (when he won). I do not think, however, can celebrate its unity, without appearing hypocritical. behold, I have the impression that it was a celebration so empty and meaningless ritual. sense to speak of unity today?
f: good question! This is precisely the question that worried me. makes little sense to talk of unity as a unit, in my opinion, today there is not. is an important issue. Italy are still made to do the Italians and the task is still ongoing. because sometimes it seems to me that here is missing almost all a collective consciousness, the idea of \u200b\u200bbeing all in the same boat, in the same country. The reasons are complex, almost certainly historical, but we are a conglomeration of individual citizens, not a community. the horizon of each of us is often just beyond our noses.
g: (blows a bit 'of ash fell on the poncho) yes, I think so too. green shirts, white collar, red shirts should be close in the same flag. and celebrate together with blue collar, the shares rose, yellow immigrants. black blouse, no, those should be able to send them to hell (laughs). Instead of a thick and underlie all stuffy blue, full of useless flags. as may be joined a country that believes in itself and in its future? a country where culture, innovation, education and labor issues are not urgent? where everything is covered with a blanket shorter and shorter, without any foresight? (Pauses, takes a long drag on his cigar) I wonder if today he would find a thousand, of forward-looking people (it is a bit 'lost in thought, stroking his beard). Well, anyway, if you insult a person for 364 days is a hypocritical gesture really him then a gift for her birthday, right?
f: right, yeah, I meant just that. it all seems a bit 'rhetoric, I think past the party and the patriotic enthusiasm tomorrow everybody will come back to do their own interests, and act as if there were a community. because a sense of community does not yet exist, everything is still to be built.
g: and I confess, all this makes me terribly angry, because in the end I love this country. want to see something?
f: yes.
g: (takes off a boot, indicates a point of foot): aspromonte, 1862.
f: (you hold your nose) wow, a terrible wound.
g: I got it in combat. but it was not a bullet Bourbon, or Austrian, or French, or skullcap. nor was the bullet of an army of this world, even if it is there that we wanted to send me (laughs). Italian was a bullet, just a year after unity. pain torments me.
f: I'm sorry. I do not know what to say. But I can think of a question: In your opinion, to build this famous sense of community we're talking about, what we need? such as bricks?
g: (sighs) but maybe times have changed so much in the end. I have always believed in this recipe: enlarging its boundaries and strive to look beyond their nose, insist the small gestures of public civility and promote in every way, who performs them. civic passion: Italy, there you have to do so, or it dies inevitably.
f: You're right, it's a good recipe. good celebration of 150 years. say hi to anita. and thanks for the chat.
g: figured I was pleased. celebration of the 150 good for you too. f

Thrombosis And Beauty Treatments - Cautions
dublin is: an unnecessary needle hundred feet planted in the road, sinks microscopic you can not wash your hands without wetting the ground, the skull of Jonathan Swift, bacon and butter everywhere and in great abundance, the Irish breakfast, which is enough for lunch and that's great for dinner, completely messed up traffic lights but with the appropriate accessories, the countdown, dancing merrily in the streets to the sound of the flute while people look at us a bit 'evil, night walks along the Liffey, pubs and colorful gates, the stern gaze of Molly Malone and the despair of the statues of famine, Shane MacGowan of the disks that are not even here, people we had all quietly undressed and very cold, the singer who sings whiskey in the pub in the jar, covered with the small coffee shop in every inch of posters and advertisements of any kind, the cold wind of Howth, seals that greet the little green island inhabited only by seagulls, the odd Polish-type met on the boat, tons of scarves worn that always seems to be near the harbor, kiss my girl by the wall gas work, write to the lighthouse at sunset, immmensi spaces of Trinity College, the harp of King Brian Boru, a library straight out of a movie, thousands of red brick, the concert of slf failure for ten days, green trash to no end, the poitin Featured, Irish stew that is pure harmony, the faces in the mirror, look left when it would be better to look right, barley, hops and yeast in a dark and charming combination, the sun and the clouds playing tag in the sky, never tiring.
Belgium is, the ducks that walk at night in the quiet square in Bruges, the streets seem deserted as a ghost town, the Westmalle triple the Bellevue Kriek Trappe and even the stew cooked in beer, work in progress everywhere, trecentosessantaepassa steps to get on belfort, swans sunning themselves before plunging into the channels, hundreds of bicycles parked in every possible place in front of the station in Ghent, the steeples of cathedrals in three rows that rise into the sky, the many French fries eat sitting on the statue in the square, waving flags with the lions on the castle, find the least flashy of a city simply by taking the tram or bus, the German type hostel there because he is the last option when you have finished the rest of Europe, hundreds of stores with hundreds of chocolates, the fun maps made by locals, the thirty-five km bike up to Ostend, the immense beaches of the Sea north inhabited only by seagulls, the immense effort to pedal against the wind, the glitter of diamonds in the windows of Antwerp, the Flemish bread with olives, the paintings of Rubens and the clash of the bootleg, the sugar that coats the squares of the waffle, the sudden rush down the train, with comic murals on the streets of Brussels and the child's tribal mask pissing, black and white photos of past lives and unknown and postcards of the past in the flea market, the structure impressive Atomium and the Heysel small after all, the restaurant is always full and the flight from pizza hut, the ruins of buildings destroyed and deserted downtown, the unexpected appearance a bit 'sgarruppato the capital of Europe, see the whole city from the roof of a deserted parking lot, his face raised to y after landing.
travel is: all this and much more: one of the nicest things you can do. f
