The day was as sunny, light and warm as my mood was on August the third of ninety six. I was going to a job interview! Not only I was going to this significant meeting, but also this particular job was going to be my first job in United States of America.

Approximately fifty years ago, I met five boys at kindergarten in the city of Nashville. What makes this fact somewhat unusual is that the other night, I met them again for dinner.
