the first with Inge Sargent, Austrian former Burmese princess. Very interesting woman. My second year teacher was a dead ringer for the magician on the "Agents of Fortune" record sleeve. I brought my copy in one day, and everyone saw the resemblance but him.

My in-laws are German citizens, born in Germany in the 30s, green card holders since the late 50s.

I'm less accomplished than I ought to be, but I get by.

Swear words are a good thing to know.
