Did you ever know that you're my hero?

David Roberts, you are the wind beneath my wings. I'm not sure how this tracks with Gristmill's billing as "a blogful of leafy green commentary", but some barriers are meant to be broken.
Italy's highest appeals court has ruled it is a criminal offence for Italian men to touch their genitals in public - a judgment that has far-reaching implications for superstitious males.

Anyone who has seen a hearse go past in Italy, or been part of a discussion in which some terrible illness or disaster is mentioned, will know it is traditional for men to ward off ill luck with a quick grab at what are delicately called their attributi....

The third penal division of the Rome court was having none of it.
Awesome.
