The Perpetual BetaMatteo Balzani’s weblog

Hi, my name is Matteo and I’m an addict.
In chorus: “Hi Matteo”

Given the fact that I live in Amsterdam you could think of marijuana or sex addiction, but my drug has another name: House MD.
I was quite desperate some weeks ago, after finishing to see the 3rd series DVD, but now I found a website where you can see the entire 4th series, and for free (sorry no links, police prevented me to palm them off)!

The problem is I almost finished it in 3 days… Right now I’m watching episode 11 (out of 12…).
It’s been a phrase by Dr. House himself urging me to write this post:
Patient: “You must be Dr. House. I was wondering when you’d have bothered to drop by”
House: “Do you think Mick Jagger shows up at sound-check?”

I can pay big money for the 5th series: I feel withdrawal coming again… HELP!

“Welcome onboard of this Freedom Airline flight! In a few minutes we will be taking off. We will arrive in Arcore (MI) in about 2 hours, just the time for you to listen to the last Berlusconi’s speech on your seat-TV. From Arcore you can take trains, buses or other flights to go wherever you want. As you know any other route other than Milan-Arcore has been cut after Milan being appointed new capital of Italy.
During the flight you’ll have the possibility to watch many interesting programs: Milan-Arsenal 2004, Milan-Juventus 2007, Italian elections 2001, Porta a porta (only one episode, but they’re all the same) and of course the exilarating Berlusconi’s “kapo’” speech at the European Union.
You will be served a very fat lunch but don’t worry: you can order the new Abs-gym-trainer on Mediashopping and you will also receive a free mountain bike with a Shimano gear.
If you are dangerous communists or judges please note that the parachute is the strange thing that seems like a normal backpack. For all other passengers, the parachute is normally under you seat.
We wish you a pleasant journey and we kindly advise you that this airplane is insured under a Mediolanum policy and if Mr. Dudi Berlusconi is the one and only beneficiary.
And now some commercials!”

Today the Dutch sky is probably trying to break some record: to show every kind of possible weather in only one day!
We already had:
- Sun (twice)
- Rain (twice)
- Snow (!)
- Hail

At the moment is raining hard.

What the f**k is next???

And we’ve been told for years that is masturbation that makes you blind…
