Ah ah ah...
I presume I just deserved that!
Remember I said I disliked the photo of me that the web-engeneer, Fulvio,
choose
for the new web-site? I complaint with him that I did not like it,
that my face looked moony.. that the site was too Gothic...
And llok now what photo he put, on the front page!
Saint Joan d'Arc...

Next time, I will remember to shut up.
"A caval donato nons i guarda in bocca"... indeed
to console myself I am adding the closing stanza of Leopardi's canto:
"The solitary sparrow":
....
.....
You, lonely little bird, reaching the evening
of the life the strars will give you,
certainly won't regret your custom: for fruit of nature is
every vagary of yours.
To me - should I fail to avoid
the feared threshold of old age,
when mute these eyes toi another's heart,
and empty the world for them shall become, and future day
tahn present day more tedious and more bleak -
what will such craving seem?
what these years of mine? what I myself?
" Ah, I will repent, and often,
but disconsolate, turn back."
Erminia
