The italian community here is actually big, I'm now working at a client's house they rented for a project, and it's right in front of the Estadio Italiano.

well, I officialy DON'T have North yet, ordered it at CD Universe, it must be travelling over the Americas by now and I'll probably get it two more weeks from now.
