It was a wonderful gift to watch the excitement they gave my Lil to show her these beautiful places at this special time in our life.
I have lots of memories of Germany. Respectfully, I believe German women are the most beautiful women in the world and I enjoy the life, beer and beauty of the country.
I was first in Berlin on business in 1978 from California when I worked for IBM. There was a selectric typewriter plant as well as another factory that made IBM copiers.
In 1985 I attended the Hannover Fair and learned of some opportunities in Berlin. It helped me create what I called "PayCheck Detente" and I began an attempt to put some doors in the wall and tried till 1989 when finally it all ended and the wall began to come down with Gorby's peristrokia and glasnost along with President Reagan's help. Will share with you over a beer in Boquete someday
I was again in Berlin for the unification to run the First Marathon in a free Berlin for Pro-Life. The New Germany was keeping the liberal abortion laws of the GDR.
Short Version of a long story, I am adopted and glad not to be an abortion.
I believe in the sanctity of life, even an unborn child's.. It was very emotional, I cried much of the race remembering the people who died trying to cross over the wall for freedom, the people who died in Auschwitz where I was heading two days later and the unborn child I was running for. Another story for a someday beer in Boquete.
(I like to say however that I won the race as I ran longer than anyone else! :-)
In 2002, the last week of November through the first week of December I took my wife on our Honeymoon to Munich, Prague, Heidelberg and Salzburg. Lil had never been to Germany, or Austria and I had not made it to Prague. We so enjoyed all the CHRISTmas Markets in each city.
Another story (to tell appropriately over a beer) was when I was arrested in 1975 at the OctoberFest for stealing a 200 liter wooden keg of beer from the Houfbrau House tent. I made a German newspaper for trying to take it home as a souvenier. Hah! All in fun anothe lifetime ago...
The one scene however I shall always remember is the American leader, a good man, good heart, coming upon resting German soldiers and a kid soldier 17 or 18 who reminded me of my sweet son, looks up at him with a smile, then horror as he is about to be shot by the American Captain.
War is a nightmare. It is the HItler and todays Hitlers in Iran, North Korea and the numerous Muslim mini-me terrorists that get innocent kids killed and leaves and open wound in the heart of the soldier that shot him.
Was this great war necessary to defeat evil? Absolutely. Hitler and Stalin were monsters. AUSCHWITZ is a one testamony to that as is Communism. Power corrupts and it destroyed Germany and most of Europe and still holds captive the freedom of billions in Moscow and Beingin.
I would have gone to Viet Nam if drafted. I trusted our Presidents that it was a righteous war but now we know now that it had brave men sacrificed for folly and politics.
Americans are A.D.D however and have forgotten the intensity of the horror of 9-11 and are tired of the battle to fight monsters. I do believe Bush was right to go into Afganistan and also Iraq. You can't reason with a drunk nor fanatics.
Sieg, I'm afraid the world is in for more wars and the fiction of Hollywood will become reality with the spread of terror using biological, chemical and nuclear blackmail. I pray I am wrong, but hope is diminishing with the ball less Republicans, pelosi/reid led sludge of congress and the pompus white house gang.
The King is naked and he doesn't know it.
I have a good friend from Kracow named Barbara Smigelski who married a friend from my Catholic high school and have been to Kracow several times, a beautiful city untouched by WWll
It is ironic, but if I could have two more citizenships, I would be German and Israeli. I love both. Long story for another time.
Thank you for the invite, sure, we can friends.
I kept on thinking about London, Ontario and then I remembered.why. When I was 21 and in college at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Ill. I had a friend whose family moved to London from my home town of Danville, Ill.
I had a 650 Bonneyville with Z bars, short pipes and extended a bit. I took off without telling the family I was coming and arrived 2-3 in the morning and did not want to wake them. So, I threw my sleeping bag down in the front yard and their Dad walks out the door to go to work and there is a "biker" in the front yard asleep.
What a surprise for him! He saw the Illinois plate so he knew I must be a friend of Rich, his son, who was in VIet Nam for his second tour. They were happy to have me stop to say hello.
Rich did a third tour again as a helecopter machine gunner and most of him came home. He left parts of his sanity and much of his heart. His family moved to Canada so his younger brother would not be drafted as he had been.
I continued on to Montreal where friends played Candian Football and on to Quebec City to see a friend then to RImouski to try and find another, down to Halifax and then took a ferry with my bike to Bar Harbor, on to Falmouth and ended up at Namuth's "Bachelor Three Bar" in New York looking for Broadway Joe who I did not meet but had a great time anyway.
It was a great road trip and it all began in London.
