Cuddled up and they were dead for like 3 days holding each other this wall so people who have lost their life so early to addition yeah this is from akron. That crown is better known as the meth capital of the high and its a city where the number of drug addicts keeps growing every year. I came up when i was 14 and my whole family were drug addicts.

No commercials anywhere there are there there was only one thing i noticed on the. Side of a whole huge building on brick there was. A sign in russian where shred ice cream is. Very delicious and healthy for food what kind of ice cream did mention there were the food is this struck me immediately i remember that. Right from the furnace 1st day there we arrived in the city ill tell you one thing when my brother and i started studying in moscow that was a 1955 how we werent hungry. We werent starving. But we never turned down any thing that was offered to us to eat or drink and where i remember one thing we were living in the dormitory the Foreign Language institute they are not far from red square. And we could have forgone our meager stay penned which is kind of a scholarship that we cook we could buy black caviar. Issues in store for. A little bit. Higher price than the other Food Products but thats where we 1st tasted black caviar never had the black caviar in canada paul never not even read. How would you like to have your name changed by someone in a split 2nd a new name not of your own choosing well that is exactly what happened to george and his brother. They had a russian identity that was in british rule of god in 1952 within. I think was in 2 weeks we had to report to the local Police Station new its called the militia. In the soviet union that time to go to the Passport Department and asked for them to fill out on the basis of what kind of document you have so my brother and i got on board and treat card travel to you know theyre part of the show.

Thats not a russian navy youre going to be going to go already this is make no difference to me and my brother is what your name is carl. After the war against nancy germany. No thats not a russian name youre going to be killed. So that made a lady at the passport desk just took like the click of the finger give me one name my brother another name thats it the fact that george was a native speaker of comedian english would be a priceless for a young man coming from the working class georges Language Skills would be the determining factor for the rest of his life when i came to the soviet union. I finally realized that my knowledge of english. My pronunciation of anguish knowledge of english grammar structure. And phonetics. Was actually a boon and they borrowed some money from our neighbors to go to leningrad Foreign Language institute and weve got a reply from maryland grad here if you pass your exams youll be given accommodations at the dharma tory local government and i was in laying grad of a place called institute of noble ladies which was later called the here famous headquarters of the communist party when the revolution started but anyway with my brother and i went there replied we we finally managed to pass the entrance exams we were given.

Were a time of great change in the soviet union and on the world stage after Joseph Stalin died in 1983 to khrushchev would initiate a political fall with the west george was in the right place at the right time.
