我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
Spent 3 months in Sierra Leone in 1981 Had 24 hour IRA guard in my house in Belfast in 1977 Raised a kid single handedly - as he is now 32 and doing well, I think I succeeded. Had a 50th birthday party in Ireland with 26 friends from 12 countries and my 60th party on Lake Balaton, Hungary. Performed in the Vagina Monologues in 2012.
