Also, I should play too. One gfther was a Hungarian MP who wound up in Gestapo prison. As Budapest was being bombed, he learned yoga from his cellmate, a shot-down RAF pilot who'd grown up in India during the Raj. My gf wound up in Hawaii, selling real estate and teaching yoga.

Every time I take a yoga class and the instructor apologizes for some kind of minor background noise I'm like, But this is a lot chiller than the Siege of Budapest.

Here’s my (not Scandinavian) grandmother on accordion in the Jolly Scandinavians; also her Melody Kings poster. Anyone: “How you doin’, Florence?” My grandma: “Everyone I can and the dumb ones twice.”pic.twitter.com/Sdp03n1cAt

My grandpa landed on D-Day w/ the 82nd Airborne, a glider division. There was a higher-up officer w/ them, & an extra metal plate had been installed to protect the officer. They crashed of course! & some of his comrades died. My G & the rest went on to liberate St. Marie Eglise.

My grandpa, while in his 70’s, was a zombie in Return of the Living Dead Part II. He won the gig through a silent auction school fundraiser. He was so good that in 2 scenes they moved him to the front to be in clear view.pic.twitter.com/cIPnkqDRdU

My GF was taken from a small Polish village as a teenager. RUS troops burned the family house down, and shipped him to a labor camp in Siberia. He survived over 2 yrs in captivity. Eventually immigrated to Detroit, where he opened a radio repair shop on 6 Mile. He retired there.

My grandmother grew up in the sticks and didn’t have running water till my mom was 18. When I was 18, I told her I wanted to be a writer and showed her a Writer’s Digest. She proceeded to show me her WD mags from 1968. She had dreamed of being a published poet. I was floored.pic.twitter.com/vcYRGYxFGq
