Dad used to kid that one of his ‘failures’ in life was that he did not become a sabungero.
I can only imagine what life would have been like had he ’succeeded.’

Lyrics of ‘If I Loved You’
If I loved you,
Time and again I would try to say
All I’d want you to know.
If I loved you,
Words wouldn’t come in an easy way
Round in circles I’d go!
Longin’ to tell you,
But afraid and shy
I’d let my golden chances pass me by!
Soon you’d leave me,
Off you would go in the […]

Lyrics of ‘Some Enchanted Evening’
Some enchanted evening
You may see a stranger,

And somehow you know,
You know even then
That somewhere you’ll see her
Again and again.
Some enchanted evening
Someone may be laughin’,
You […]

CON TE PARTIRO
Quando sono solo
sogno all’orizzonte
e mancan le parole,
si lo so che non c’e` luce
in una stanza quando manca il sole,
se non ci sei tu con me,
Su le finestre
mostra a tutti il mio cuore
che hai acceso,
chiudi dentro me
la lace che
hai incontrato per strada,Con te partiro’
Paesi che non ho mai
veduto e vissuto con te,
adesso si li […]

That my father loved teaching was one thing we never questioned.
That he always had a passion for it was something that could never be denied.

The Murder of Thomas Becket, 1170
A sword’s crushing blow extinguished the life of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, on a cold December evening as he struggled on the steps of his altar. The brutal event sent a tremor through Medieval Europe. Public opinion of the time and subsequent history have laid the blame for the […]
