La forza d’un bel viso a che mi sprona? C’altro non è c’al mondo mi diletti: ascender vivo fra gli spirti eletti per grazia tal, c’ogni altra par men buona. Se ben col fattor l’opra suo consuona, che colpa vuol giustizia ch’io n’aspetti, s’i’ amo, …
Just a mini Troll this week, fans, as we’re addicted to the Big Brother (every damn day, 9pm C4) crackpipe and neglecting such things as eating, sleeping and, indeed, moving. Shahbaz hiding all the food was one of the funniest things we’ve ever seen, all …
