Are you drooling?

I thought the very first thing I should write about on here is why we chose a Motto Guzzi. But first, here's a very brief history of Moto Guzzi.

Moto Guzzi was founded in 1921 by two aircraft pilots and their mechanic. Their names were Carlo Guzzi, Giovanni Ravelli, and Giorgio Parodi. Even Giorgio's brother Angelo helped out. And that is called a very brief history of Moto Guzzi, which coincidentally connected nicely to me, another Angelo. Don't you agree?

In 2009, Amy, Delilah, and I attended an Italian festival in Houston. And, at this gathering of my brethren were displayed a few new Moto Guzzi motorcycles. Amy had known for the last 12 years that I'd like to own a motorcycle, but the knowledge of a few motorcycle accidents in my early 20's had kept her from agreeing to let me get one.

But on this magnificent day, high up in the cannelloni clouds of heaven, the Italian patron God - let's call him Guido - nudged Amy's chin slightly toward me to let her observe the slight drool that was dripping down my chin as I stared at the bikes. "Are you drooling?" I kept quiet as she continued. "Okay" she said, "You can get a bike, but it has to be an Italian bike." I looked back at her, trying to keep calm and act cool. "I don't think that will be a problem." I felt like a man, as she proceeded to wipe the drool off my chin.
