Unlike almost every other Roman I met (excepting the pizza boy when I got pizza ALONE), Remiggio was not surly. Plus, he was absolutely out of his mind. It must be difficult to stay happy and sparkling when you are completely nuts, but Remiggio pulls it off with maximum charm.
He hangs out by his fountain all day and tries to get into photos that tourists are taking. He sticks out his tongue, babbles in Italian, and mocks everyone as he carries around a foam core mounted photo of himself looking at an article about himself.
It didn't take me long to fall in love with him. I'm glad that Buster took lots of photos.
