There's a German woman who sometimes comes to Doggie Doo Run Run once in a while. Of course, they have a dachshund. She married an air force member who must have been stationed in Germany or something like that. Name's Maggie. Not sure what her German name is.

I have had fun trying to read the German. I have a few years of college German at the University of Nevada, Reno and a Quarter of German for Graduate Students at the University of Minnesota. I also took Dutch, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, and French but dropped some of these. I was getting kind of Napoleonic in my pursuit of foreign languages while at the University of Minnesota. Even flunked Reading Italian for Graduate Students while at the University of Minnesota because I had too many irons in the fire.
