THE SLOWWORM AND MY SISTER:
3 days ago,reading the newspaper,I found out that Riccò’s going to become father.I don’t care about this-the problem is my sister.She hasn’t showed it,but I think it’s been quite a bad blow for her! She started supporting Riccò at this year Tour (fortunately I didn’t have to stand her for a long time....) and the scandalous thing is that in May 2007 she was Andy’s fan!! I don’t know what happened to her then.She first saw Andy in the Giro 2007 and when I told her that I liked him,she said that he was horrible.However,the first time she saw him without the helmet and without the glasses,she fell in love with him.I remember that she asked me: “Who’s that? What? He’s the guy you like?”,then she shut up and started staring at the tv with an astonished expression on her face. “What’s his name?...And where does he come from? Luxembourg? Oohh...”. “Do you like him?” “Ehm...Uhmm...well,let’s say he’s cute...”,she said.Unfortunately it was just an infatuation that last for a very short time (1 or 2 days...).Then the Giro ended and she soon started to make fun of him (and of Frank).I’ve always said that,during the distribution of the brains at the beginning of the world,she probably was in a loo...
Then during this year Tour she started to support the Cobra (or the Slowworm,as I call him) until she found out that he was doped.And 3 days ago,that other bad blow....Poor sister! If you’d kept on supporting Andy,this would not have happened.... =)

NB: I know you don't care much about this,but I've threatened my sister of talking 'bout her on the blog if she didn't stop to say to everybody that I like the Schleck brothers,so...The fact is that she tells this to everyone (my grandparents,my uncles,my aunts,my father's friends,the cyclist of her team...) and it's pretty embarassing when one of your grandfathers asks you: "Which one do you prefer? You can't decide? Well,poligamy is not allowed here in Italy,you better go to some Arabian places...",while the other usually calls Andy "the one with the big nose " ("òl Nasù",in bergamasque) or "the one that comes from...how it's called...Luxembourg?"
