The mystique of owning four wheels
14 Sep 2007 Arved Plaks

My cousin, who lives in Estonia, asked me how many cars have I ever had. I tried to remember. It would depend on how you count them. Do all cars in the family count? Do I count all the cars with my name on the registration? When my kids were below the legal age, their cars were in my name too. Thus, it depends.

This example of DP handiwork is on display at the Museum of Occupations in Tallinn, a must-visit. The Toronto Estonian School Choir paid a visit this summer, and saw the author’s father’s suitcase as part of a larger exhibition of the luggage of those forced at the last moment to flee the Soviet occupation.<br> <br> Photo: Arved Plaks - pics/2007/17517_1_t.jpg

Damn! Didn't realize I could understand Estonian, Arvid (like "Nimi" means name and "Kommentaar" obviously means "commentary."

Anyway, we talked about immigrate and emmigrate at lunch today. Watch those in your story. You immigrate into and emmigrate out of. You've switched them a couple of times.

I look forward to reading more.
