La Bella Figura - a form of respect.
Berlusconi continues to blaze a trail in maverick thinking, inspiring awe and confusion in all he encounters.
In his end of year press conference he was asked about this year's "Lifting" episode and his much talked about hair transplant surgery. He smiled and replied "I like to see myself young, and it's a form of respect towards others".[1]
With this philosophical backing this Monkey will be taking to the streets of Bologna haranguing disrespectful pensioners for looking their age - after dyeing his own prematurely greying hair it should be added.
