The magic guitar There was a young musician named Peter that played guitar in the corner of the Streets. He earned in this way the money to continue his studies at the conservatory. He dreamed to become a famous rock musician.But he could earn little money because the wheater was cold e there were few passers (few people walking in the streets). A day, while He was playing, an old man with a mandolin approached him. "Could you give me your seat? It's near a manhole. Than, could you lend me your scarf? It's very cold today". "Of course" replaced Peter that was kind (animo gentile: good hearted?). "Could you give me some money? There are few people. I'm hungry" Peter gave to man ten money and than a miracle happened. The old man became a special effect magician and gave to Peter a black guitar. "This is a magic guitar. It play everything you ask. But it can be played only who is kind. Woe to evil that will play it". Peter started to play music that even Hendrix could do. So, discovered by a talent scout, he was at top of the chart in two months. His guitar was an icon (simbolo/mito) for millions young people. His technique was envied by all guitarists. A night after a triumphal show, Peter thought he was alone on the stage, so ask to guitar to play some relax music for him. The guitar played a lullaby. But in the backstage was hide the evil (malvagio) Black Martin who discovered that guitar was magic. Slipping behind him, He stole the instrument killing Peter. Than he painted the guitar to red. The day after, Black Martin played in a show and asked to guitar to play the better music. It was a an epic success/win!!! The guitar played better Rolling Stones and than Black Martin became a rock star so nobody remember Peter in a few time. At the end it was discovered that it was a magic guitar with a manufacturing defect.

It's Friday Hello everybody. Today is Friday. While I'm listening an U2's song I'm thinking about this week that going to end. Many colleagues are going home happy with a single thought: "what can we do in this weekend"? But not for me!! These few past day have been very cold in Italy, so my mind is for the people of the hearthquake areas. There are many people without an home, without a shelter from the cold and the snow. I stayed in Amatrice before and after the heartquake. I could see how life has stopped at that instant. It was impressive! I'd like to do something for all this people, but nothing in enough. This is terrible. Tonight I'll continue to pray for them. I love Italy!
