It all started like this: The legendary summer 1985

1985 Tutto iniziò così 1985-Compagnia
Like all things, this one began by accident.
But unlike many others that are slipping him without a trace, this one has stuck to him like a second skin, and in time, at least for me, began to penetrate more and more 'in depth.
I'm talking about something that is difficult to encapsulate in one word, something that has deeply affected the emotions of that period and that still pervades our memories and nostalgic expression painted on our faces and a little sad whenever talk about it, whenever you remember.
And those memories to their special nature, have become the "RIMENBER. And it is the expression, between the dialect and English, to distinguish memories of that period and that "thing" from any other memory, giving it a dignity of its own and set out once and for all that existed at the time, and in part still exists.

Perhaps, in part, will also blame the fact that "Amarcord" must be something genetic here in Romagna, and remember that often becomes a kind of sado-masochistic practice where melancholy and nostalgia mix the pleasure of bringing to mind emotions already experienced. Enjoy live again in a good time, and both suffer for the simple fact that it is past.
So spend the evening soaking in the "RIMEMBER", in an ideal state of mind, including hypnosis and consciousness, which follow the thread of discourse becomes a tough year for those who are alien to that time.

But what I'm talking about? What is the subject of "RIMEMBER?
It's us, is the fact that he had encountered in the adolescent period and that he found in a group simply because it seemed like a natural thing. I'm talking about a story of friendship, a friendship that comes very naturally in a few weeks, involving people who are profoundly different, a friendship "cross".
Yes, just "a friendship cross." Here, I finally came up with the word I was looking for. I'm talking about a story of friendship across. And if one day the book comes out we are talking about for some time, intolerance might just like that: "The Others: The Story of a friendship across."

But because "cross"?
Cross because it involved not only individuals but also the existing groups, more or less established companies, some of which have continued to maintain their lives and some have merged into something bigger that has developed its own terminology, its own way of seeing and experiencing things everyday, thinking.
Cross because, for better or for worse, has accompanied our past, is still with us today and probably will do so in the near future.
Cross because it is a story of friendship in friendship, because it is a story that was written with words from so many different people, but also from many groups.
Cross because it was not only lived in Riccione, but also involved companies from other countries, Italians and foreigners.

Germans, Dutch, Swedish, became part of our group (yes, I admit it was mainly women's groups) and continued to serve on it for years, and I bet that even today would be happy with us Rivere a RIMEMBER.
Customers of "our" hotels (many of us are hoteliers) or areas of the sea (some are lifeguards), people I met on the street or known in the business of "throws in" a disco, came unwittingly become part of life of "Others" (but for this there will be time later).

As we talk about the genesis, might as well explain the name: Others.
It may seem a stupid name, but maybe they are all names that are fastened her companies.
Instead Others, like all the names of companies, has its own meaning, just as "friendship cross."
In earlier periods, when we did not have a name yet (but we felt the need to better define), we met often opening his speech with phrases like: "Hello Rigo, saw the courts?" Or "Hello Ciolli, where are the others? "
At this point it is clear why we decided to call Others (Others in English)?
But the point is not that. Are you aware of why? Importance that we all had for the group?
We would meet demanding "other." Not one in particular, but "other"!
The Others, kindred spirits .... (Continued)

Hello to all the Friends of Riccione!

I decided to start writing a diary that tells stories and urban legends of the many summers spent in dancing to the Adriatic coast. A little reminder that you too can participate by posting comments to articles.
