One of my favorite shows growing up was Hogan's Heroes. I thought Bob Crane was cool, Col. Klink a total dweeb, and Sargent Schultz just adorably ignorant. With his regular line of "I know nothing! Nothing!" it is no wonder I feel akin with Schultz today.
(Trivia - John Banner, the actor who played Schultzie, was Jewish. He was born in Vienna, Austria and because of his Jewish heritage, he served time in a German concentration camp in the early stages of Nazi rule. His entire family was killed in the camps. His acting in Switzerland and later America ironically cast him into roles of German War officials because of his accent and features. He died of an abdominal hemmorhage on his 63rd birthday in 1973, at his home town of Vienna where he was buried.)
I kinda feel like I am having an abdominal hemmorhage (figuratively this time).
My agency caseworker still doesn't know what caused our 'adoption hold' or when it could be resolved. It is day to day!
P.S. I have SO enjoyed my sister Cindy being here for the past several days... I don't want her to go back home to Florida, but I'm not sure how much longer I can hold her here in the Twilight Zone!

Ann - sorry for the delay, but we are happy that we are going to be able to see you and Jordan and the gang in TX... we'll have to wait and meet little Brian after the New Year which isn't too far away!
I am sorry that they haven't figured it out yet. I hope they do soon, for all of us!!
OK-
