My darlings, greetings from Milan. I know some of you are worried and I know the news is being unkind towards what's happening here, the place in Italy where we have the highest rate of confirmed cases of what has been called "Coronavirus". According to official...

I like music and I rarely stay in silence while I'm working or writing, or traveling (but, mostly, working). I sing too, mainly while I'm driving or under the shower. And, as you might have guessed from my previous assertion, I'm not a music expert. I...

Indipendentemente dai meriti calcistici, trovo sia un peccato che il Milan abbia perso la semifinale contro la Lazio, dato che la finale si giocherà proprio a Roma. Con l’occasion della trasferta, avremmo potuto ricambiare il favore. Portare anche noi qualcosa di politicamente provocatorio. Qualcosa di polemico...
