Pierino Prati, a striker who was part of the squad that reached the final of the World Cup in 1970, but never played a minute, has died of cancer aged 73. Perhaps most famous for his time at Milan between 1966 and 1973 where he scored 72 goals in 143 outings for them and Roma where he scored 28 goals in 82 matches. His club career also saw him feature for Fiorentina, Savona and Salernitana, the latter of whom he began his career. For the Italian national side, he scored seven times in 14 games. https://www.repubblica.it/sport/calcio/2020/06/22/news/morto_pierino_prati-259917022/

A fire fighter is polishing a fire engine outside the station when he notices a little girl next door in a little red wagon with little ladders hung off the side and a garden hose tightly coiled in the middle. The little girl is wearing a fire fighter’s helmet and has the wagon tied to a dog and a cat. The fire fighter walks over to take a closer look. “That sure is a nice fire truck,” the fire fighter says with admiration. “Thanks,” the girl says. The fire fighter looks a little closer and notices the girl has tied one wagon leash to the dog’s collar and one to the cat’s testicles. “Little Partner,” the fire fighter says, “I don’t want to tell you how to run your fire truck, but if you were to tie that rope around the cat’s collar, I think you could go a lot faster.” The little girl pauses for a moment to think, looks at the wagon, at the dog and the cat, then shyly looks up into the fireman’s eyes and says…….. “You’re probably right………but then I wouldn’t have a fucking siren, would I?!
