Morning, Rick.

I want to go home................................oh wait...........................ummmmmm............ ...................never mind.

My family hails from there.

Cool! Any female relatives, say in their 20's to mid 30's?

Dewd, staying away from my family is a great idea. we are all very unstable. Well I am not but the rest of them....................whoa. :)

Runaway Zjermans, the lot of you.

Not me, you can blame my grandparents. I had nothing to do with it.

Lol, you hunt the same prey as me, better not get in my way, bozo... :D

Was there a particular reason that they left das Vaterland??
If they would have stayed you guys could drive real Porsche instead of the tuned down American ones....
(unless you have a ROW import ;))

They feared Hitler.

That's fair.

The history I have heard. My bed time stories, other than the typical Brothers Grimm, Little Red Riding Hood and other classics, were my moms war stories. I can't imagine living there during those times, but at the same time, I can.

My grandfather was in the merchant marines. They were pulling out of New York in the early 30's ( I believe that was the time frame) as they were heading back to the Father Land, he jumped off the back of the ship, swam to shore and requested asylum. Imagine that, a legal immigrant. My grandmother came over very soon after that.

Cool story! Jumping of a ship and swimming back!

My Grandfather was an amazing man. He went to Penn State, and was a petroleum engineer for Arco. He would collect scrap pieces of wood and make ship models that were simply amazing, and the glass cases for them. Unfortunately he was a violent alcoholic, his addiction finally claimed him and it was a slow and horrid death. My grandmother was multi lingual and worked as a seamstress. They just don't make people like them any more. (me included)

Good Friday Morning guys.
