The other day, whilst reading a Mario Puzo novel, I was looking at Sicily on my map app and I looked at the town of Butera where Ken's family is from and I saw a street named Via Scuzarella, which is his mother's family name. Very cool, I thought. Very cool.

This morning I was reading the obituaries in the Sacramento Bee and one dead guy was from Pieve San Paulo, which happens to be where my grandfather, Peter D.Scatena, was from, near Lucca in northern Italy. I again went to my map app, and looked at Pieve San Paolo, and what did I see?

Via Scatena!!

So very cool!!

I'm like Ken!!

Only better, somehow.
