1) Were you born in Italy or in NY? How often do you go back to Italy?
I was born in Schenectady, NY. It is a small city which is about 15 minutes from the capital of NY, Albany. My parents were both born in Italy. My father was born in Broccostella, a small town in the city of Sora of the Frosinone province. My mother was born in Fontechiari, another small town in the province of Frosinone. My mother came to Schenectady when she was 13 and my father when he was 16. They met each other and found out that they lived only 20 minutes away from each other in Italy!
Believe it or not, I have only been to Italy once in my life. It was in 2006, 2 days after the WC final. I have tons of family in Italy, but because my father owns his own business, we never had the time to go visit them. Now that I have my own job and my own money, I would like to go back to Italy every couple years.
2) What are you working as right now? Or are you still studying? Tell us about it.
I went to college and received a Bachelor's Degree of Science in Computer Science. I recently obtained a job in April of this year as a Web Applications Developer for the New York State Office of Children & Family Services (OCFS). We basically build web applications that handle payroll, purchasing, shipping and all the other kind of things the OCFS does. I was brought in to head a project to convert the physical check adoption subsidy payments into a debit card system. Since this project is not ready, I do not have too much to do and help out other people if they need it. This is a huge reason I am always on here. During 8am-4:30pm EST, I am at a computer and I continually check this forum to help pass the time. So unfortunately for shahz and other people that hate me, until my project is ready, you will continue to see a lot of me!
3) Which managerial stats impressed you the most throughout those great research that you've done?
The most impressive thing by far is just how incredible Jose Mourinho's league coaching stats are. We all know how great his form has been coaching in 3 different leagues, but until it was compared to other great names, I just did not see how impressive it was. I have done stats on a great amount of managers in my thread and Mourinho still stands atop the list!
4) When and how did you start supporting Inter?
Back in Italy, the natural team to support for my father would have been Lazio. In fact almost my entire family supports Lazio. However, when he was a child there was only 3 teams that were really successful at that time, and as a child you always want to support the successful team. Those 3 were the same big three of today: Inter, Milan, and Juventus. Since his older brother, my uncle, decided to become a Milan fan, my father decided to be the annoying little brother and supported Milan's biggest rival. Well 25 years or so later I was born and after supporting Inter for that long, the first thing he taught me to love was the game of soccer. The second thing was Inter. From the age of 5 or 6, my father used to bring me every single Sunday to his local bar to watch Inter play. My father isn't the most talkative man, and being a strict Italian man, he is not one to discuss his feelings with others. But whenever we had absolutely nothing to talk about, we could always talk about Inter and I think that is truly something special. I am known to be one of the most optimistic fans on this forum, and this has partly to do with the fact I have supported this club when they won nothing, but also because of the fact that my father always was very pessimistic like others on here and I always spent hours trying to convince him that things could be better or we didn't do everything wrong.
5) How did you come across this forum? Have you been a regular member elsewhere before?
I actually do not remember how I came across this forum at all. It could have been when I was searching for Inter videos, but I do not remember. This is the only forum that I have been a regular member off. I am registered at many forums, but I hardly post once a week in them, let alone 16 times a day as I do in this one!
6) Who do you hate more, Juve or Milan?
I actually have no complete reason for this, but I have always hated Juventus much more than Milan. I am guessing it is because they are just a more successful team than Milan, or because more of my friends are Juve fans, but I do not know for sure.

For those who are not common with the idea, this is a thread where we get to ask all kind of questions with the interviewee. Shall I begin?
