‘The Sound of Music’ was the very first movie I ever saw in a theater. I was 5 years old and my German Jewish Grandma took me to see it.
And we then had a LOT of conversations about that movie and all that it entailed, through the years.
Love, Love, LOVE that you posted this. THANKS! :)

these in northern Colorado. So far, no success.

Same title, different song.
The singer tells of how he finds an edelweiss, a small white flower that only grows at high elevations in Europe, while climbing a cliff. He gives it to his girl friend and she then proudly wears it on her Sunday dress. The flower winds up uniting the two lovers.
Edelweiss--band and chorus of the infantry regiment "Gross-Deutschland" directed by Friedrich Ahlers (1939)

Has been killing it recently. Amazing.
Makes the falling out with CR even more curious.

LOTS of people know politics.
LOTS of people know culture.
Steyn is one of the very few people who know both consummately and can magically weave them together at Mach 5.

I love his story of playing it in the WH for the Austrian President and all the Americans stood up as if for the Austrian anthem, but the Austrians didn’t know it! Hilarious.
