Still live the cold war every day - I married a Russian

No, actually, make that a Hot War. MMMM, much better.
8 years and 2 kids later this August.
As to the Cold War - old enough to remember a bit of it... post-Viet Nam etc. I was in Berlin in 1989 when they started tearing down The Wall - got pieces of it still - and did still endure East German border crossings (FUN - NOT!)
