Comment of EyXU2ceyOv:
I need to go back and read the book .but I do not remember any mtonien of having lunch w/his mother. He does document his days in quite a detailed manner. To my recollection there was no mtonien of lunch w/mother. As a matter of fact, I thought he was estranged from his family and friends d/t what was considered quite eccentric behavior. I'm not sure anyone should assume that this is an historic fact based on one statement overheard while eavesdropping on a conversation. http://etimyabmis.com [url=http://biphux.com]biphux[/url] [link=http://bctggl.com]bctggl[/link]
