May 2, 2008

Hi Gary,

QOTD: Since I’m married to a Russian immigrant, I would share my experience of Russian culture and how our family integrates it with American. Then I would ask about your experiences…We might even manage to squeeze in some conversation about wine!

Hope to catch you in Seattle

Thanks for all the great shows
