Chris,
Thank you to you...streets are where ideas spring
from,
TO go up on stages and from stages back
down on the streets.
I am enjoing Germany this week-end.
Good food and good restaurants and bars but
most of all, good friendly people, who listen and
smile and who are happy that you smile and talk to
their children (like in most continental places).
Also, I have rented again the Last temptations of
Christ, by Martin Scorsese to show it to my two
children.
