Watched this a few years ago and it never stops being funny ... in case you're not one of the 312M+ viewers who haven't seen this one

Pretty impressive!!!!

L'appuntamento

Italian

Ho sbagliato tante volte ormai
che lo do già
Che oggi quasi certamente
sto sbagliando su di te
Ma una volta in più
Che cosa può cambiare nella vita mia
Accettare questo strano appuntamento
E stata una pazzia

Amore fai presto
io non resisto
Se tu non arrive
non esisto
non esisto, non esisto

Sono triste tra la gente
che mi sta passando accanto
Ma la nostalgia di rivedere te
è forte più del pianto
Questo sole accende sul mio volto
Un segno di speranza
Sto aspettando quando a un tratto
Ti vedrò spuntare in lontananza

Preciso acabar logo com isso
Preciso lembrar que eu existo
Que eu existo
Que eu existo

Luci machine, vetrine, strade, tutto quanto si confonde nella mente
La mia ombra si è stancata di seguirmi
Il giorno muore lentamente
Non mi resta che tornare a casa mia
Alla mia triste vita
Questa vita che volevo dare a te
L'hai sbriciolata tra le dita

Na na na na na na na …

English translation:
The Appointment

I've been mistaken so many times by now that I already know
that today is almost a certainty
I've been wrong about you
but once more
that you can change my life
to accept this strange appointment
has been a madness!

Love, make it soon,
I don't resist
if you don't come,
I don't exist
I don't exist, I don't exist

I am sad among the people
that are passing nearby
but the nostalgia of seeing you again
it is stronger than weeping:
this sun shines on on my face
a sign of hope.
I am waiting when suddenly
You appear in a distance!

It is necessary to finish with this soon
Necessary to remember that I exist
That I exist
That I exist

Car lights, shop windows, streets,
everything seems so confusing
my shadow is tired of following me
the day dies slowly.
Don't leave me to return to my house
to my sad life
this life that I wanted to give to you

Completely in love with L'appuntamento ..... all over again.

Part 2 - inspiration

I guess I needed a dose of something... and here it is .... amazing stuff

On literature.

"...words (and the words of literature they make) are like water or like ants. Nothing can penetrate into the cracks, holes ad invisible gaps of life as fast or as thoroughly as words can.

It is in these cracks that the essence of things - the things that make us curious about life, about the world - can first be ascertained and it is good literature that first reveals them. "

- Orhan Pamukh

interviewers on cnbc india are probably measured by their ability to consume more air time than their interviewees ... why don't they ask a short question and shut up?

watched 20 minutes of an interview with the CEO of Vodafone India and i actually had to change the channel as I could no longer bear to see the pain on the CEOs face.

When will we ever grow up ... and why are Indian interviewers on TV so excited?

Chris Nolan never ceases to amaze me .... watched the scene of Batman Begins when Bruce Wayne in the Japanese monastery takes the hallucinogen and walks to the box containing the bats.

'Men fear what they cannot see'

'In order to defeat your fear, you have to embrace it'

The writing is brief and hits home

Camera Panning

Everytime the camera pans to the crowd in a game, and focuses on a girl or some kids enjoying the game, you can be rest assured that a fat jackass will push his face, mouth open, face sweaty and screaming into the camera and block everything beautiful out. Life's like that

The things people will do for a good pen!

Insomniacal again.

Not sure why this happens. I've run 5km on a treadmill this evening, and this is the second time this week. My muscles ache, and I'm mentally tired but I can't fall asleep. I'm thinking of something to read, but the last 170 pages of LOTR are too boring ... war war ... described somewhat inconsistently.

I consider reading "Talks with Sri Ramana Maharishi" but I don't think I'm in that kind of mood. So, then comes the TV... Jay Leno is on ... Diane Lane is on .... she looks like she's 30 ... how do these people do it? I've decided I've had enough of Jay's jokes. So now I'm looking at the GoodPens blog by Seth Godin. Strange hobbies have even stranger groups on the Internet, and I recently became a member of the Fountain Pen Network, with my second post commenting on the Quality and Prices of inks available in India last week.

And then I come here.... not much to say except I'm insomniacal. I hope you're asleep. I hope you're dreaming. I hope you're well. I hope the Gods watch over you. Bye.
