Pado...what kind of message did you leave Sergio on his voice mail?!!
Balky is the name I christened this Albanian pick pocketer who stands outside the Cafe/Bar downstairs from my appt. complex. He just paces outside pretending he is doing something...never understood WHAT he is pretending to do. Anyways, he moved from pickpocketing to collecting cans I think because everyone basically knows his "trade". However, I have seen him at Piazza Navona and Piazza di Spagna avoiding police brutality after bumping into a tourist.
Another character is the "Don" who I think is the owner of the cafe. He sits in the back of the cafe and is constantly looking at receipts or something. For some reason he thinks I don't speak Italian and tries to say the three English words he knows "New York very big friends" (pointing to himself). and he always asks "TUTTO OK?" (everything ok) like a good Mob boss worried about the "little people". I think he has Balky on the "payroll" because the fact he lets him stand outside puzzled me.
Pado: what time do you leave the office??

You're on, Pal.
I'll see if I can get some time to play tomorrow after 6:00. I need to buy a USB headset so that we can talk. Can you imagine us playing SOCOM with our headsets on complaining about Legrotagllie, and our other team members are going "Legro, what 's a legro?? What position, how do I kill it?!?!?!"

Got that right!
Believe it or not, I have met some soccer fans playing SOCOM; sadly to say non of them stated Juve as their favorite team. I have astonishingly met two guys who love Inter Milan! What pricks! This other guy in my team is a Newcastle United supporter, and of course you have the filthy Manure and Arsenal supporters. I try to spread the word about Juve, writing Forza Juve at the end of every chat message. But most people say "what the hell is hoo-vay" or "man, why do you like soccer." I say to these pricks that they are just not intelligent enough to be soccer fans.
execuse me guys for my intrusion.. but since there are many italian-speaking people around here, I would like to ask you about the meaning of the word "fafankolo" (spelling??) what does it mean..?? I don't wanna make a thread about it.. not worth it.. I think it's a bad word.. is it..? I want to be sure..
if you want to know about how I heard it.. here is the story..
last sunday I went to the this coffee shop where they were broadcasting Mialn-roma match.. there was a couple of italians there watching.. I was interested to make a small chit-chat with them..so, I went over there and tried to make a conversation.. I asked who do they support.. they said "Roma".. I smiled and after a while thanked them for their time and politely went back to my table.. when I was leaving I waved at them again and said see you guys next time and good luck next season.. "grazie" (it's the only otalian word that I know.. beside "Senior" and ciao).. they waved back "ciao.. see you" and mumbled "fafankolo..??" and suddenly they laughed out loud after that.. I was :wth: and left..
what does it mean..?
