I thought G8 countries have to be in a certain level of economic advancement?

Mmmm... Is Italy really a 3rd world country or am I missing the joke here?

I see dead pixels Yes, even I am blogging now!

It seems that Italy and UK have practically equal gross domestic product (GDP), for similar population size. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nominal)[^]

I think you may have upset someone; personally, I found this quite amusing.

I must get a clever new signature for 2011.

Italy the country isn't third world, but it's premier could very easily be mistaken for a third-world-country leader.

Ironic spell check post alert. It's apostrophe.

I'm not a stalker, I just know things. Oh by the way, you're out of milk.

Thanks, I was indeed in doubt about that, since my spell checker is set to Dutch.

So you are saying UK is a third world country too?

[Dejan Petrovic]

No, I am saying that neither Italy nor UK are third world countries. Simply, it's time to move away from some 50-100 years old prejudices. World has changed dramatically since that time. Make no mistake, I enjoyed watching 'Fawlty Towers' and loughed at relationship between Basil Fawlty and Manuel (ok, that's Spain) - but that simply wouldn't be the same today. Things change.

I know. I was just kidding.
