Ciao a tutti,
It takes some cheek, and a flare for the unconventional - but banning the common cold sounds like a great idea! However, the common cold seems to be a far lesser problem that the other challenges facing Italians - especially the Italian male. Hot on the heels of a study showing that more that 55% of men have extramarital affairs, comes another study from Abruzzo indicating that you a healthy sex life can prolong your life, but it must be with just one partner. A conundrum, indeed.
Now, just in case you were thinking of entering a steady relationship make sure you've thought of the pets first. The Italian Association for the Protection of Animals and the Environment wants you to sign a prenup making it clear who gets the pets after you split up.
 All this would have certainly amused Dino de Laurentis who sadly left us this week. His films have often treated in the funny and the absurd and have entered Italians and not for generations - and surely will for generations to come. Dino - we bid you farewell.
Saluti a tutti - until next week!
ITALY team
