Good italian food in Portland, and Borat

Had a great, great, great dinner and superb espresso at Piazza Italia in Portland (OR), led by Alessandro, an almost 70 years old cool guy from Bari. Didn’t have my camera with me, what a pity :-) By the way, in Oregon you don’t have sales tax, so basically everything is about 4-5% cheaper than in Seattle (including Apple products, to which I can add my 8% amazonian employee discount too).

Now I’m at the Hotel, checking email and feeds, and just discovered this genius tweet. Oh, didn’t you know anything about Borat?

Did you know that Sacha Baron Cohen is preparing a new film? Title says all: “Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Males Visibly Uncomfortable in the Presence of a Gay Foreigner in a Mesh T-Shirt”.
