Subtle differences.
Greetings from Torino
There are many subtle differences between I-tally and the good ole' USA. For instance, here they have named a whole city after a mediocre Ford from the 70s. Maybe they like Starsky & Hutch a lot. USA - red, white and blue I-tally red, white and green. They also drink mostly wine, not beer. What's up with that? Perhaps the most important thing is that 'puck' sounds a lot like 'duck'. Yes it is a subtle difference but a very important one. Never shoot at a puck.
The hockey match was going along well untill that subtle differencemade itself apparent. Shooting at a duck in the USA is A-OK. Shooting at a puck in I-tally is not. Again with the wardens chasing me. Again I lost them. This time I was fortunate to be near an olympic ice arena. In the sprit of Toyna Harding all ice arenas are equiped with baseball bats. Swing one of those around and people clear out fast.
Back at the challet I watched Charlton Heston take yet another gold medal, this time in boardercross. Man, this guy is good.
