Comments for Dreaming In Italian http://www.dreaminginitalian.com Thu, 17 May 2012 17:01:16 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 Comment on Lunch with Mussolini by Joe http://www.dreaminginitalian.com/2012/04/27/lunch-with-mussolini/#comment-3146 Joe Thu, 17 May 2012 17:01:16 +0000 http://www.dreaminginitalian.com/?p=931#comment-3146 I agree that the impact of terrorism is quite subjective although memories do fade. I no longer think much about JFK, RFK or MLK. Of course there are die-hards in the U.S. who have not gotten over the civil war and you know where they reside. I don't know of anyone that still laments the Vietnam war. Perhaps it's because we have a shorter history, who knows. So someone was shot, it's a country with 60 million people. Shit happens. How many people are shot EVERY day in the U.S? So enough of this subject. I agree that the impact of terrorism is quite subjective although memories do fade.

It takes a long time to become fluent but I am definitely improving. I'm learning to love il congiuntivo. Beh, fluent. It takes a long time to become fluent but I am definitely improving.

I miss Italy so much and I wish I could go back to school but as I have not won the lottery yet I must stay here in Edinburgh and work. Say hello to everyone for me. Enjoy your extra long stay.
