Hi, how ya doing, etc.

So I said, “I bet you are not really a happy camper the last couple weeks?” He said “What do you mean?”

I said, “1956.”

His face changed into complete rage, and he went off on a string of invective (in multiple languages) ending in “...Banana Republic!!!”

Lazlo escaped Hungary in 1957, with the clothes on his back and a price on his head...
