'cos "Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive”... (Howard Thurman)

2) OPEN MINDED

'cos "A mind is like a parachute. It doesnt work if it's not open"... (Frank Zappa)

'cos "it don't mean a thing, if you ain't got that swing"... as they used to say in the past

Public Notice to all those requesting friendship: I'm on Jango fundamentally to LISTEN, not to read&write.

Public SPECIAL Notice to all those requesting friendship just because they "love so much Italy, Italian people and Italian way of life":

What you got here is only one station, where you can find all my musical influences. I do believe in blending and mixing, not in boundaries.

Sociology, politics, communication&media, history, geography, psychology, anthropology, movies, architecture... And music, of course.
