Before class. I dont know if the individual has the courage to ask that question. Is that possible . Do you want to do that . Okay. All right. I asked if that picture was you. Well, its part of me. This is Maurice Jacob weaner, my father. And this lecture is in honor of him. My grandmother, his mother, his functionally illiterate in english. Spoke yiddish. Never learned the language. He graduated third in his class in high school and won a scholarship to penn and wharton in law school where we also boxed and ran track. He was drafted at age 35 when my mom was pregnant. Came home really didnt mind the war. Now, he was a nifty guy, and i think one of the main reasons im doing this tonight is because of him. Because he used to have me sit while he shaved every morning which was quite a scene. And he would quote the gettysberg address, or he would quote from shakespeare, but above all, he would talk about world war ii. So i knew about the battle of the bulge when i was about five years old

Glad to see all of you here tonight. We had one burning question before class. I dont know if the individual has the courage, who asked that question. Is that possible . Do you want to do that . Ok. All right. I asked if that picture was you. Well, its part of me. This is Maurice Jacob weiner, my father. And this lecture is in honor of him.
