The Good Example

Dear Iraqui people,

Here we came to show You what democracy is.

We came to bring You peace.

We came to teach what the human rights are.

We hope You learnt the lesson.

Yawn Vs Sex

From a recent study by Robert Provine, Maryland University, it comes out that to yawn gives a pleasure that is just a step below orgasm.

From now on, since from the sex point of view things are not going very well, don’t consider me rude if You see me yawning all time!!!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Dear All,

It has been a very hard year in many senses. From a sentimental point of view it has been a kind of catastrophe (no weeding anymore); last month we’ve lost a person really important for us; the job is going on…

But everything passes (“panta rei” someone said) and the 2006 has not been an exception.

So, since I’m fed up of bad years, this time I wish to You all , but also to my family and to myself, a Merry Christmas and a serene 2007.

Goal!!!

If (because in these cases it’s a must to say “if”) God wants… Tomorrow will be the last working day of the year. I hope that a catastrophe will not occur.

Please, whish me good luck, I really need it!

I’m fed up…

Dear all,

Today is one of those days You’d prefer to have the flu or headache more than to be at work… Nothing going well and everything looking even worse… At least a funny call at late in the evening can improve the mood.

Something out of topic

Many times I wondered about the reason because I like almost all the kinds of sport. Maybe this attraction towards sports is due to the thrill, maybe it’s because of the unpredictability of most of the events… Anyway, whenever there is a sport event on TV I watch it with the happiness of all the people around me…

Then I started to think which is the most exciting moment of sport I’ve never seen in my life. Here above there is what I consider the most exciting one…

If You have any other opinion, please, let me know!

It’s never too late

Augusto Pinochet is dead. 17 years (1973-1990) of terror during his dictatorship in Chile. This man lived for 91 years. More than a thought to his dead, many thoughts to all the people who died for his cause.

Pendulum

It happened that me and some friends of mine found ourselves in front of a pendulum clock. It was in Luzern. Main feature of this clock was the possibility to see the mechanism

I’ve been asked to explain how it was working… Well… for all those that are interested in understanding how it works above you’ll see the magic equation, where:

T = Oscillation time;

g = gravity acceleration;

l = length of pendulum.

Actually this equation works for a “simple pendulum” and is valid for “small” angles (around 15 degree). From the above equation is possible to understand that the oscillation time is independent of the mass and the amplitude of the oscillation. To be honest for “real” situation (still in the hypothesis of small angles) there would be a “small correction”, but anyway it gives the idea.

Squash Soccer

Those that personally know me are aware of the fact that my physical shape has been getting worse and worse since two years ago… I’ve been asked many times to play soccer with some friends (we were used to do it almost all the weeks during the university times), but for a reason or another one I’ve always said no.

Today is holiday… When I received the request to play “squash Soccer” with some friends, I finally said yes.

I didn’t know exactly what it was. Actually it’s a kind of soccer played in a squash court, where the out doesn’t exist and it’s possible to score using rebounds on the walls.

Believe me, after 5 minutes my sight started to become dim. After 10 minutes I recognized S. Peter with a crowd of angels singing to me to go with them. After 15 minutes I fell down heavily on the court talking in ancient greek.

My friends, fortunately, have been indulgent and understood my difficulties…

Anyway, I had a lot of fun, I hope to recover a better shape and play again!

Let’s fight!

“Ground Control To Major Tom…”

“Ground Control To Major Tom…”

Today I’ll start the most stressing and dangerous activity of the year: Christmas shopping.

It means that I’ll go in shopping center crowded by Bilions of people screaming, with unbearable children, stopping everywhere, looking around like having had dope…

There are times I even miss my job…
