D'you notice that when you speak 'bout OSS, most of the listerns think "oh yeah! it's free! i will be in my budget and, maybe, i can do a markup! ye!!! party!"
It's a little bit curious don't ya think?
Well, i came from a company named Datamat, and, ok, it was not perfect, but it was a company where IT was the core business. When a firm has to do money with "services", usually it looks for something that can decrease costs, so it can increase its markup. That environment was not the heaven, but, yeah, i played with in a lot of crazy project with all these OS stuffs. 2 years ago a great group company, maybe the first in italy, has bought my little company (well... not so little at all), and in 2 years i've realized many thinks: a great shark doesn't respect a little goldfish, Opensource is meaning Cheap and Free, IT is a sort of vaporware.
I've spoken with some manager, and with my new co-workers, and when i've told'em that my infrastructure was made with OS stuffs they say: "where's the security?" "oh yeah, you can't manage it", "well yes, it's time to stop to have fun and to do real business with this brand new Checkpoint Firewall growup". Maybe they don't have clear the meaning of Opensource. This kind of mentality, of way of thinking, it's not made upon the concept that all it's free, all it's a kinda of game, all it's made by a little geek-lamer behind its thik glasses in front of and old fashionable monitor. They think that.
But maybe nones tell'em that OSS, oh what the hell, OpenSource way of life, it's not simple a way to use something, it's a way to figure out some solution! and doesn't matter if the application is mine, yours or whatelse. The only think that care (in my opinion), it's finding a solution! Find a quest and its answer, and when you don't find a quest, well, create it! In a freemind thinking without any restriction. And when you don't find a solution, fuck off, you are able to do yours on your own! and, if you believe in free spirit, in the comunity, you can share your damn solution! This is not only a way of business, this is a way of life, where the lesson it's simple: you don't know how to do that? what fuck do it on your own! evolve yourself, fight with the machine and beat it. fight against your limits and beat'em !!
Here's why i don't like anymore this company, it's too old for me, too slow, there's no speed, no evolving... well it's just too fucking obsolete! firt of all in the mind
Some news are just wonderful, or crazy by the point of view.
Ya know, in Naples there's a strong fighting against the rubbish. Full Garbage cans everywhere, and not only in the city, but in the whole region. So in some "mozzarelle di bufala" have been founded some trace of dioxin. 
And, of course, some foregin countries have stopped all the import trades 'bout this food (delicious in my opinion).
Ok, i know, what's the matter? just only a great economic loos in the export balance of our poor country. But the real news it's this: China has stopped all the Mozzarella import in its country, because there's a Health risk for its people. What's strange? it's in the burdens of a State to defende its people health; but d'ya hear? China! 
it exports a lot of scum in all over the world! and now? They have something to say?
But there's a little doubt in all of this. Italy does not export original Mozzarella di bufala in china, why? 'cause chinese quaratine it's about in the order of 20 days, then you have to count all the travel time, and then this period it's longer than 23 days. Ok, a little thing. To obtaing the Doc certificate, Mozzarella must be considered as a "fresh food", so? the limit for the fresh food it's only under the 23 days!!! For this reason, italy doesn't export Doc Mozzarella di Bufala in China! And for what they block our trade, if is there no trade? What the hell! only for push down our brand and pull up their... uahhhhh i don't like this shit!
This clip (and track) is from one of the best film i ever see: into the wild.
Breathe dudes, breathe!
When I walk beside her
I am the better man
When I look to leave her
I always stagger back again
Once I built an ivory tower
So I could worship from above
When I climb down to be set free
She took me in again
[CHORUS]
There's a big
A big hard sun
Beating on the big people
In the big hard world
When she comes to greet me
She is mercy at my feet
I see her inner charm
She just throws it back at me
Once I dug an early grave
To find a better land
She just smiled and laughed at me
And took her rules back again
[CHORUS]
When I go to cross that river
She is comfort by my side
When I try to understand
She just opens up her hands
[CHORUS]
Once I stood to lose her
And I saw what I had done
Bowed down and threw away the hours
Of her garden and her sun
So I tried to want her
I turned to see her weep
40 days and 40 nights
And it's still coming down on me
[CHORUS]
Raise your swords up high!
See the black birds fly!
Let them hear your rage!
Show no fear!
Attack!
Charge your horses across the fields
Together we ride into destiny
Have no fear of death, when it's your time
Oden will bring us home when we die!
The ground trembles under us
As we make our thunder charge
The pounding hooves strikes blinding fear
Into their heart
Our helmets shine in the sun
As we near their wall of shields
Some of them turn and run
When they hear our frenzied screams
Draw your swords to strike
Hear the Black Birds cry!
Let them feel your hate!
Show no fear!
(Attack! Attack! Attack! Attack!)
Charge your horses across the fields
Together we ride into destiny
Have no fear of death, when it's your time
Oden will bring us home when we die!
The enemies are in disarray
Ride them down as they run
Send them to their violent graves,
Don't spare anyone
Dead and wounded lie all around,
See the pain in their eyes
Over the field an eerie sound,
As we hear the ravens' cry
The icy winter is creeping near
Dark skies above us
Biting frost in the air
Darkness surrounds us
The cold piercing autumn breeze
Fills the longships sail
Soon the lakes and seas will freeze
And snow will lay its veil
Many years we've been away
Many oceans we have roamed
Now the North star guides us on our way
As we are heading home
The many hardships we’ve endured
Have brought us rich reward
Now the North star guides us home
With cargo full of gold
Many friends died on the way
Only few of us survived
But I would gladly take their place
In Oden’s hall up high
The icy winter is creeping near
Dark skies above us
Biting frost in the air
Darkness surrounds us
Soon the lakes and seas will freeze
And snow will lay its veil
And we will long for the summer breeze
Where we can set our sails
Yeah right, my father has got a nokia, my mother too. My official work mphone it's a nokia... well, not exactly, i've got an htc for work purpose, with its AWESOME windows mobile..
