Do You Like Motorcycles Guys

Children of a Lesser God


read nicely on my site bookmark "drug dealer" GPON motorcycle news, the brother of Valentino Rossi, Luca Marin, is about to start a brilliant career after attending elementary Motorcycling in the various leagues for boys. Up to here nothing wrong if it is always relative of the illustrious brother and thus worthy of a mention journalism. I always read the same article that the little Luke is not finished first in his class, but "only" sixth out of 38 participants, which I sembra comunque un risultato sportivamente rilevabile. Ma se lui è arrivato sesto, chi sono gli altri 5 che sono arrivati prima di lui? Quali sono i loro nomi, i loro cognomi, la loro storia? Quello che è arrivato primo sarà stato più meritevole di una menzione, oppure non ci interessa perché suo babbo è ragioniere di Pistoia? Domande alle quali mi piacerebbe avere una risposta proprio da chi in telecronaca o da articoli di giornale, pontifica sullo scarso vivaio di giovani futuri piloti italiani. Signori miei, incentivare uno sport “delicato” come il motociclismo significa anche menzionare quello stuolo di ragazzi figli di persone “normali” che cercano e investono con sacrifici a fine mese per vedere il loro figlio arrivare prima degli altri o semplicemente emulare le gesta dei propri beniamini. Non tutti hanno la fortuna di chiamarsi De Angelis, Rolfo, Lamborghini, Canepa… Eppure al fratello di Rossi è già stato assegnato un posto come prima guida nel Team RMU nella 80cc in attesa di completare il progetto Moto3 che gli sarà sicuramente affidata alla prima occasione. Lo so che sto parlando di aria fritta e cose iper-ovvie, ma essendo un appassionato di moto e vedendo la perdita della nostra leadership a livello umano, mi piacerebbe che i signori del microfono, della penna e del video, capissero che Valentino non è eterno e che anche lui un bel giorno (spero lontano) smetterà di correre o nella peggiore delle ipotesi di vincere, e che solo allora, come oggi scorrendo la classifica della 125, si accorgeranno che forse era meglio parlare anche del vincitore di un campionato giovanile la cui unica colpa era di aver avuto il babbo muratore, elettricista e non pilota o figlio di….

Arthur Koestler Darkness at Noon

Arthur Koestler, Hungarian-born writer, left the Communist Party during the period of Stalinist purges and published in 1941 the novel "Darkness at Noon" in which they told the story of a high official of the Soviet Communist Party , Rubasciov, star of the October Revolution, who was arrested for counterrevolutionary activity and submitted to the system of Stalinist purge (torture, extortion of confession and a false conviction). Koestler was inspired by the trial and the sentencing to death of Buckarin which took place in 1938. The story is one of the most tragic developments in the municipality where the individual as a subject endowed with free thought and personal identity, is canceled in the name of a place like faith total, absolute and unquestioned. Rubasciov should be deleted because it wants the greatest good of the party and in the interrogation Dostoevsky with his inquisitor and executioner, Gletkin, will lead to the final tragedy.

Milan Kundera The Unbearable Lightness of Being

More about L'insostenibile leggerezza dell'essere

novel by Milan Kundera published in 1984. The novel tells the story of four characters sentimental and existential and is set in Prague in 1968, between the hopes of the Prague Spring, a trial communism human face, and the Soviet invasion that crushed the attempt by violence. The title alludes to the paradox that the existence requires that we give it a meaning, but it is impossible for us to give life meaning. This step is partly explained the title: " [...] If you took it himself, but in the end it was said that in reality it was only natural not to know what he wanted. You never know what you should want because we live only one life and one can not compare with their previous lives, or correct it in future lives. It 'better to be with Tereza or to remain alone? There is no way to determine what decision is the best, because there is no comparison. The man lives now everything for the first time without preparation. As an actor enters the stage without ever having tried. But what value can have life if the first test is already life itself? That is life always like a sketch. But even "sketch" is the right word, because one is always a rough sketch of something, the preparation of a framework, whereas the sketch that is our life is a sketch of nothing, an outline with no picture.
"Einmal ist keinmal. Tomas to himself, "repeated the German proverb. What happens only once it's as if it never happened. If man can live only one life, it is as if he did not live at all. [...] "
