Nope, no effects of this morning’s earthquake in Abruzzo up here in Bologna. But the death toll is frighteningly high for such a small city – my heart goes out to L’Aquila, Abruzzo, and all its inhabitants.

Italia
"Italia...is a maze. It's alluring, but complicated. It's the kind of place that can have you fuming and then purring in the space of a hundred meters, or in the course of ten minutes. Italy is the only workshop in the world that can turn out both Botticellis and Berlusconis."
