[Moejoe]

I love the French for...Bridgitte Bardot, the movies of Truffaut, their wine, the French Resistance in WWII, the novels of Emile Zola, the Eiffel Tower, the language that sounds so good (even though I don't understand it), the Cannes film festival, a city that I share my Surname with,

I love the Spanish for...Picasso, the Siesta, Sangria, Miguel De Cervantes, Holidays as a kid, Tapas, Flamenco guitars, the little church with the Ebony Jesus I visited,

I love the Germans for ... the best beer in the world (that doesn't make you feel terrible the day after), the Reeperbahn, beautiful trains that I travelled on many years ago, the nice woman in the Pension I stayed in who laid out ham and cheese every morning for breakfast, bike rides along the beach in Busum, the quiet taxi driver who picked me up at the airport in Hamburg,

I love the Americans for...the writing of Ray Bradbury, the films of John Carpenter, the Native Americans, American Football (go Bears!), Dashiel Hammet and Raymond Chandler, Bogart and Bacall, the Statue of Liberty, Kolchak the Night Stalker,

I will add more as the night goes on.
