IL CUORE MALATO

Un cuore di pietra, un cuore ferito, un cuore bucato sulla sabbia della bieca Melilli con tutto il suo sacro san Sebastianello, la marina baciata dalle ciminiere infette al dolce sapore di idrocarburo, di gpl e nafta, di benzina al dolce sapore di prugna, come il confetto storico per la cacca. Verrà la morte per il cuore offeso e avrà gli occhi di Billy la Bella. Due stent, datemi due stent per…

The Neverending Reading List: Book LXXI

"How Fires End" by Marco Rafalà

A dark secret born out of World War II lies at the heart of a Sicilian American family in this emotional and sweeping saga of guilt, revenge, and, ultimately, redemption.

After soldiers vacate the Sicilian hillside town of Melilli in the summer of 1943, the locals celebrate, giving thanks to their patron saint, Sebastian. Amid the revelry, all it takes is one fateful moment for the destiny of nine-year-old Salvatore Vassallo to change forever. When his twin brothers are killed playing with an unexploded mortar shell, Salvatore's faith is destroyed. As the family unravels, and fear ignites among their neighbors that the Vassallo name is cursed, one tragedy begets another.

Desperate to escape this haunting legacy, Salvatore accepts the help of an Italian soldier with fascist ties who ushers him and his sister, Nella, into a new beginning in America. In Middletown, Connecticut, in...

Lesioni, insulti e minacce alla compagna: divieto di avvicinamento per un 62enne a Melilli. I Carabinieri della Stazione di Melilli hanno eseguito la misura cautelare del divieto di avvicinamento alla persona offesa a carico di un 62enne per maltrattamenti in famiglia. L’uomo è gravemente indiziato di aver procurato lesioni ad una donna, con la quale avrebbe condiviso due anni di relazione sentimentale, insultandola e minacciandola in diverse occasioni. Dopo aver denunciato i fatti ai Carabinieri, i militari hanno immediatamente avviato le indagini, coordinate dalla Procura della Repubblica di Siracusa, che hanno permesso di raccogliere elementi utili all’emissione della misura cautelare per l’indagato del divieto di avvicinamento alla persona offesa con l’applicazione del braccialetto elettronico.... #notizie #news #breakingnews #cronaca #politica #eventi #sport #moda Read the full article

Darn it, I kinda wanna make a poll in which y'vote for yer favourite Goodsprings Cemetery name, but there's 15* an' the limit is 12.

Ah, well, I guess I'll jus' list 'em all an' y'can decide individually who y'like the best. So, not countin' the player character's shallow grave, 'ere we will 'ave all 15* named cemetery people in no particular order an' with my headcanons about 'em too (yes, I have headcanons on gravestones, this shouldn't be surprisin' for me).

*(or 16, we'll get to that)

"Fearless" Dave

Full Epitaph: RIP "FEARLESS" DAVE

Like all Goodsprings bodies we know very little about "Fearless" Dave, but I'm gonna guess he was brave. Unless the name is ironic and Dave was the most cowardly man t' ever walk the Earth. I could see that too.

Count Abraham Jefferson III

Full Epitaph: Count Abraham Jefferson III

That's a pretty silly name for some lad buried in Goodsprings, a place that seems t' 'ave never had nobility. Unless you think, as I do, that Count was, in fact, his first name (like how people have the first name Baron). In reality this is probably just a joke name, but I like my theory. Speakin' of silly, tellin' capitals from lowercase wi' the words 'ere is 'ard because the all use capital forms, but the lowercase is smaller, so R and r both am R, but lowercase is a smaller R.

Jay Frenzal

Full Epitaph: Jay Frenzal

This is one that gets some trivia on a Wiki, so I'm jus' gonna copy an' past that trivia 'ere "Jay Frenzal is a reference to a song of the same name from the album B Is for B-sides by American ska-punk band Less Than Jake. The song, in turn, is a reference to Jason Whalley of Frenzal Rhomb, who has one line on the track." I 'ave no connection t' any of that means, but it seems t' be true. An Easter Egg in the graves, that.

Verl

Full Epitaph: Here Lies Verl

The Wiki also mentions somethin' for Verl, there's a bit of graffiti on the Vault 22 sign that says 'Verl is Boss!' ('Boss' is underlined, but I car seem t' do that on Tumblr). I 'ighly doubt these am the same Verl, but if y'think they am they can be. I think both Verls deserve their own individual Wiki pages.

Danielle "Mutant" Melilli

Full Epitaph: Danielle "Mutant" Melilli

Mutant's got a very cool name, I think. Other than that, we can only speculate how mutated Mutant was. Maybe a 6th toe, like y'can get in Fallout 2, maybe she wasn't mutated at all, but was strong or somethin'. We will never know, but she did 'ave a good name.

Whiskey Snakes Jr

Full Epitaph: WHISKEY SNAKES JR

Speakin' of cool names, who can forget Whiskey Snakes Jr's name? I'm not givin' the 'Jr' a dot because there seems t' be no dot. Also at the Grave is the Goodsprings Snow Globe. Maybe Whiskey was a collector like House, or just enjoyed that snow globe of the town they lived in. We will never know, but Whiskey had a good name and Whiskey Snakes Sr was right t' send it down another generation.

Jo-Jack JR

Full Epitaph: RIP Jo-Jack JR

On the topic of Juniors, Jo-Jack JR a name that kinda gives me 'Jagged Jimmy J' feelin's (no dot because there's no dot again, but the R is clearly capitalised). Jo-Jack is a fine name, but I'm less certain Jo-Jack SR's choice was a great one than Whiskey Snakes Sr, sorry Jo-Jack SR and by extension Jo-Jack JR.

Jake

Full Epitaph: RIP Jake

Delightfully simple. RIP Jake indeed.

Benny Lava

Full Epitaph: Benny LavA

Another one that 'as actual trivia on the Wiki, it says "Benny Lava is part of a line from the song Kalluri Vaanil, which gained fame in the English-speaking world due to a 2007 viral video in which its lyrics were phonetically translated into English, famously rendering the line "Kalluri vaanil kaayndha nilaavo?" as "My loony bun is fine, Benny Lava!"" which is interestin', I s'pose. This also means that Benny was smokin' near another Benny an' probably didn't know (nor would he have probably cared). Still, another Easter Egg in this graveyard.

Mr. D. DeCollibus

Full Epitaph: Mr. D. DeCollibus

A D given name an' a 'De-' surname is fun. Not much else I could speculate on him.

Mr R. Horn

Full Epitaph: RIP Mr R. HORN

Another 'Mr Initial Lastname'. R. Horn's 'Mr' has no dot, which is the way we generally spell 'Mr' in the UK, y'know. I doubt Horn was anythin' other than American, though. R. Horn is also useful because someone posted the full grave names texture file on his wiki page, which makes readin' those epitaphs an 'ell of a lot easier.

Mr J. R. Smith

Full Epitaph: Mr. J. R. SmitH

Might as well finish the trio of 'Mr Initial Lastnames', though in this case it's 'initials lastname', guess J. Smith woulda been a bit too generic.

Owen Parry

Epitaph: Owen Parry

Owen Parry, not much t' be said on Owen Parry. It's a nice name, don't get me wrong, but it's a pretty usual name wi' nothin' t' comment on about it.

Tymour Saba

Full Epitaph: Tymour Saba

Another good name I 'ave little t' say on. Not quite as usual t' my eyes as Owen Parry.

Sara "The Bear" Friedman

Epitaph: Sara "The Bear" Friedman

The Bear is a good nickname. It can paint a picture or two, but we will never be able t' guess which picture was the correct one, if any. Was Sara big and hairy? Wild and dangerous? Able to carry the weight of the world? All three and more? We can only guess.

The 16th Named Grave

So, that was the 15 featured graves, but y'may've noticed I put in brackets up at the top 'or 16, we'll get to that'. See, in the texture file PNG that's shown on Mr. R. Horn and The Bear's wiki pages, there's a 16th name. Lemme grab an' paste said image.

Y'may notice at the bottom the 16th name: Josh "The Kodiak" Anders. A name that, t' my knowledge, appears on no grave in the game (correct me if I'm wrong).

So, why was The Kodiak cut, I wonder? Well, I 'ave a theory: redundancy. We already 'ave The Bear, why would we need another grave wi' someone who's nickname is also related most likely to the Kodiak Bear species? A few names repete themes, but I'd guess someone thought that those two were jus' too close. If we indavidually agree wi' that or not is each of our personal business, but that's 'ow it is, I think.

Conclusion

So that was all 15 (16) names in Goodsprings Cemetery. Decide for yerself which ones y'like the most an' like the least. I've probably shown me bias 'ere already, but whatever y'like y'like.

Personally, I'm glad t' 'ave things like these names in Fallout New Vegas. I'd've liked 'em more if there was someone in Goodsprings tied to someone in these graves, if there was a Smiles or somethin' there, y'know they do that in Red Dead Redemption 1 wi' graveyards an' NPCs. I liked that, added interconnection that was marellous, in my opinion, but I'm still 'appy wi' what we got.

So, yeah, that's that. Think about these graves a little more next time ya rob 'em, I guess. Hahahaa.

Tav. XLIII - Bombe di guerra

Il 12 luglio 1943, mentre gli alleati anglo-americani bombardavano Melilli, un bambino di 11 anni, A.R., trovò il corpo di un uomo senza testa. Una bomba aveva fatto scempio del suo corpo. Il bambino ne fu così sconvolto che sfuggì al controllo del cugino, e andò a nascondersi in una grotta. Solo dopo molte ore i genitori riuscirono a trovarlo e a farlo ritornare a casa.
