The problem of the problem IS the problem of the problem. Il problema del problema É il problema del problema. Hi friends, and all who came to read all about me, myself and I. I was born in a place which was Venetian, then French, followed by Austrian, then Italian, followed by Yugoslavian and today it is Croatian. In my family there are three descendants which have three nationalities but never left the little hamlet which they were born in. My father was born an Austrian.I was born an Italian. My brother was born an Yugoslavian. So my first language in school was Serbo-Croatian and at home we spoke a dialect of that language. My parents were taught by Italian teachers until the war. All children were in the same room and taught by one teacher. My family emigrated to Trieste, Italy after WWII. I found it hard to learn a new language, and my teacher told my mom to only speak with me in Italian. So I learned to speak, read and write in Italian. In 1956 we emigrated to the US. At 14 I started to learn a new language again, and I am still learning. I went to a vocational HS and learned the electrical trade. I started to work in that trade until 2003 and had to retire due to an open heart surgery in which the aorta valve and three artery were replaced. Being retired is very hard. I retired the first time in 1986, then in 2003. But slowly I found things to do. Gardening was very southing and satisfying. I started to research my family genealogy in 2003 and still doing it. I am writing the history of my people and their genealogy into a book for the future generations so they know where we came from. In 2015 I had the second surgery which the surgeons replaced a faulty aorta valve. Life in the US was to me as pleasant as the previous places. I started to work at 15 and did not stop yet. At 80 I look at life very differently than when I was in my 20's starting a family. With a very beautiful wife and two very successful children, one a teacher and one a chiropractor and two very smart grandchildren. Life is good but only you can make your life good. My sister was born in the US so again we are composed of three nationalities. I served in the US Army 1964-1966 with an overseas tour in Viet Nam in 1965-1966. I was affected by the spraying of the defoliate of Agent Orange made by DuPont and Monsanto makers of Roundup. Today I am as good as I am and still messing in the yard with planting flowers and stuff. I live in North Carolina with my beautiful wife of 53 years and my grown children and their families. I write on my project whenever I get a message in my head to write a certain information on genealogy. I enjoy Wikipedia because it let me write things I know and let me do it correctly. Thank you!
