Remigration

Another topic I have “touched upon” is “remigration.” This word is a neologism, which means coming back to where you have been driven out.I've always said that I wanted a smooth ride, but I couldn't help rocking the boat. Rocking seems to be in my genes.

Remarkable People

On the road I have traveled, I have met many remarkable people. First I name my friend and mentor the late Emile Capouya. “Mike” encouraged me over the years and published two of my books in New York.

Austria and Ireland

Austria is to Germany what Ireland is to England. In the Land of the Southern Cousin, the language is more lilting, and that’s where the talent and the imagination are. Charmers and flatterers are good at creating fantasy, but do not always adhere to the truth. Fantasy may sometimes be far from the truth, but if it is well delivered, is the truth really that important?

The basic difference between Irishmen and Austrians lies in the way they take a fall. The Irish seem to go down head first, often with a little help from the English, but Austrians have the feline quality of landing on their feet.
