All About Insanity, Stupidity and Tequilla

Interested ?
I did some reading (something I haven't done for ages - I usually devour at least 3 books a month!!) and finished it yesterday. It's a witty and humorous book called Mafia Chic. It's about Teddi Marcello Gallo, a Mafia princess who's everything but a mob. As the only granddaughter of one of the most reputable and respectable Mafia Dons in New York, her family is somewhat over-protective when it comes to Teddi and she has just about enough of that. But I'm not going to do a review on the book. If this kind of story teases you, then you should go ahead and buy it.
There's one particular word that's often mentioned in the book, and pretty much the essential ingredient of the book: "thunderbolt". I don't know if it's true, but in the book it is said that the Italians believe that you can be struck by a thunderbolt in love. You can fall in love with someone you've known for a long time, or you can fall in love with someone you barely know, or you can just simply be struck by a thunderbolt - you set your eyes on someone, and that's it: you know he's or she's the one.
It sounds like love at first sight (which I don't really believe), but it's not exactly it, is it? I mean someone can be your thunderbolt, but it doesn't necessarily mean that you've fallen head over heels in love with him/her. You can still go out with someone else, but you just know that you're destined with ur thunderbolt.
It doesn't make sense, but love never does, does it?
So, do you want to be struck by a thunderbolt?
