Vikings? Schreiber? Hm...........

My mother was a Schreiber.....from a little town called Niederndorf, near
Siegen, in Westphalen. My father was Prussian. As an officer in a time
when ancestry was deemed to matter, he was thoroughly vetted by the
Luftwaffe (or so the story goes) and discovered that he was descended from a
Viking prince or something. Frankly, he didn't look the part and I've
always suspected that the story of my own birth in Niederndorf was concocted
to hide the fact that I was kidnapped at birth (or shortly thereafter......I
was very young.....it's all pretty hazy) by German peasants.

I can hardly be the only person who was struck, at the Penn's clave last
spring, by the uncanny resemblance (anticipated, somehow, by Michael Moore,
of all people) between Roger and Me.

we are cousins, perhaps?


You are definitely cousins:
