Agreed - a great story with a good ending! I'm very glad the boy got to do the song he wanted, and that the principal backed him.

I wonder if anyone recorded him and if he might turn up on YouTube? Sounds like his rendition would definitely be worth seeing (and hearing).

Signor V.


"For me, there's only my wife..."

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"

"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"

"It was a grass harp... And we listened."

"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
