So now we look over Luigi's shoulder as he writes another letter to Mama Vasco in Italy. Dear Mamma Mia, Chicago is a very fine city and a full of very fine people. It's very interesting for me to stand in front of my store and watch people walk by and guess what they are by the way they walk.
Yesterday I watched a man. He walked very fast. He's a banker. Then I see a man walking not so fast, not slow. I think he's a clerk. Then I see a man, he walks very slow and I look very sad.
