You cannot have the best of the old country _and_ the best of the new.
Now there I disagree. My German heritage meshes nicely with Mary's Hungarian background. We enjoy great beer, wine, potatoes, and goulash, as well as oompah bands and polkas! In my opinion, the ONLY parts of our heritage that have survived five generations in the United States have been the best ones. All the horrible European problems that our ancestors fought so hard to escape have been left behind, while the good parts -- the food, the song, the festivals -- remain. In the end, we are both very proud of our heritage, but we are first and foremost AMERICANS. Our great-grandparents didn't risk their lives coming here so that we could screw that up. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
