For no network to pick up this series is a sign that the execs in charge have absolutely no understanding of quality programing. The script is well done, narration great (intelligent) and the videography/cinematography is really really good and the editing is first class of course. All in all a series anyone in commercial broadcasting should be proud to have their name associated with.
Hey Peter, thank you so very much for the kind words. It really means a great deal to me and to everyone who put in a lot of hard work on this series. Cheers to you and thanks so much for watching! 🙏
Loving the golden Noto vibes 💛✨

My family is from Cerda too!! I saw in the mail box it said F. Cicero. My great grandma was a Cicero…. Are you related to them?

The spleen controls the level of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets (small cells that form blood clots). It screens the blood and removes any old or damaged red blood cells. If the spleen doesn't work properly, it may start to remove healthy blood cells.
Thank you for the info!!!! And thanks for watching!

Thanks Mike, after the wonderful video that you gave to the city of Trapani and to us Trapani people on the Procession of the Mysteries, once again you managed to tell very well the beautiful reality of the Procession of San Francesco di Paola, which together represent the soul of our city.
