you know, utah, the friend mine who "introduced" me to Lehrer told me a very funny anecdote about alma and gustav. i have no idea whether it's true or not, but here goes:
gustav apparently suffered from what is now called "erectile dysfunction." since there obviously was no viagra or cialis during those days, what did he do? he went to visit his local shrink, sigmund freud. while i think it is documented that freud cured gustav of his "ED", there seems to be some "urban legend" out there that after Gustav died, Alma refused to pay Freud the money he was owed for his psychotherapy sessions with Gustav.
True? Maybe, maybe not. But kinda funny nonetheless.
I am a self-published writer of short stories, poetry, and politics. I'm a rescuer of dogs and stray cats. I believe everything is political—especially sex and religion.

Oh to be a fly on the wall. first to hear how Freud cured Gustav, and then to hear Alma's reason for not paying.
