"Mi porta un portacenere, per favore" (and again the spelling of "porta" might be wrong) is one of the most common Italian phrases I use in restaurants :) Rick: glad I got the spelling right! “Mi porta un portacenere, per favore” (and again the spelling of “porta” might be wrong) is one of the most common Italian phrases I use in restaurants :)

An Italian friend of mine was terrible at pronuncing English at school, by the way. He would pronounce "ashtray" as "ass try", heh. Great site, Mister. I discovered it through Mark Pilgrim's blog.

Coincidentally, I bought a Macintosh last week and am starting to have very similar fears. It's never good when buying a product implies joining a religion. Happy birthday! I can tell you with some confidence that 38 isn't significantly worse than what you're experiencing now, except that the fell-walking instinct grows stronger.
