Talking about the difference between living and surviving is becoming some sort if cliché with which being philosophers on social networks. “I want to live, I don’t want to survive!” it is the typical sentence you can read on the topic. It is very difficult to stop and think about the real difference between living […]
I have always been drawn to disaster movies. I do not know why exactly, probably thinking about what I would do in certain “end of the world” situations fascinates me. Would I have sent a virus to the alien servers of Independence Day or I simply would have installed Windows Vista? Would I have gone on the asteroid […]
We all feel like philosophers on Facebook. That frenzy feed, so filled with more or less spontaneous chats, is pushing us to take out the best (or the worst) of our being (being, so, organisms with a complex mental capacity). But I noticed that there is a huge difference between what most of users are […]
As I wrote in my first post on this blog, I like changing my guitars and amplifiers a lot. It is not because I am not satisfied of what I have, but in this way, I have the chance to try many instruments and sometimes I find some good surprise. Like the guitar I am […]

Like a powerful glue on your fingers that you can’t remove, because all your fingers become sticky as well at a […]
Dear 2016, you are just 4 months old, but you already showed how such a pain in the ass you are: you take away from me all the beloved ones and you are making people even more ignorant than they usually are. You are covering me with a blanket made of laziness, so warm, but […]
As we all know, there have been three important inventions in human’s history, which changed its course: The wheel firstly attributed to the 25 years old beauty from “Piacenziano” times called Lucy Afarensis, but lately attributed to the famous Ötzi… former member of Paleo-Sabbath and creator of the Ösbournes. The Lamborghini Miura (by Ferruccio Lamborghini […]

Focusing on music, criticizing the other musicians means judging them based on their […]
