Usually around this time of year the Sound of Music comes on television. I don't know how many times I've seen it. This year I have a special affinity for Captain von Trapp. He was so disgusted, so alienated, so melancholy as he watched helplessly as the Austria he knew and loved so much succumb to the New Order of the Third Reich. Yes, I can relate this. I feel much the same way about my own country these days.
:) I realized that after I posted... long day. I found this thread as a link from a more curren thread.
Still here, kicking and fighting!
