TOA

The Italians had their transfer of authority ceremony, the outgoing group has been here for 6 months and it is time for them to leave. I have enjoyed working with some of them, especially Macari the Scottish-Italian (hearing him speak English is a hoot, he sounds like he comes right out of Braveheart!), and while they could have done more as a whole they sure are fun to be around. But of course maybe not right now as their football team (the real football, the one being played around the world) got the $%(# beat out of them by the Dutch!
Anyways, they will be missed, and I sure hope I will enjoy the new guys as much as I did the ones leaving in the next few days.
