Italy, the World is watching You !

not only of the country but also of (more than 50%) Italians.










__________

I'm afraid that today's most representative cliché about Italy
- for and on behalf of pizza or spaghetti, is...
berlusco or bananas.

Yours faithful,

Enough Bananas !

Because the news from Italy are still distressing...
(e.g. : the Mills' affair) since Italians themselves
seem unable to ward off fate...
