not only that he wrote that, mike. there's another statement of him bothering me. 
written in a way only us 2 could understand it. it turns out that he uses this list

its been only a couple of days since his hygienising the "this is what 
happen in italy" thread, if I'm correct.

what's on his mind? what's eating him?
