About Me
- Name: Aussiegirl
I am a naturalized Ukrainian-American, fortunate enough to have been admitted to this great land as an immigrant. My personal history is the spur for this blog. My parents lived through the Ukrainian Genocidal Famine of 1933, survived years of Communist persecution, fled to the West, endured forced labor in Nazi Germany, and following liberation, ended up in Allied internment camps fighting forced repatriation to the Soviet Union under the Yalta Agreement. Their courageous struggle to bring our family to freedom, first to Australia, then to America, and their example of unflinching faithfulness to truth and honor, have left an indelible impression on me. My parents did not save me from Communism and Nazism for me to go gently into dhimmitude or slavery. Hence my passion and my mission to expose threats to freedom and democracy wherever they are found. This blog is a testament to their courage and my small gift to their heroism. ***ADDENDUM*** Aussiegirl, my wife, Helen, passed away on January 13, 2007. I shall continue her blog to allow access to her archives.***David

Well I received a score of 5/100. I guess I am a huge realist.
I'm with you on the 13th. Although I know there's probably nothing to it, I always feel uneasy on Friday, the 13th. And those pesky emails -- the ones that threaten you with bad luck if you don't forward them -- I hate those and I don't -- because I don't want to saddle someone else with the stupid thing, but they always make me feel uneasy. Now I have no trouble opening an umbrella in the house, even though my mother always warned me against it, but my mother has proved over the years to be correct over so many things that I used to poo-poo that I'm beginning to wonder about that one as well ;)
But count me in -- if a psychic gets off the plane -- so am I!! I remember the first flight I ever took -- alone -- and I was so scared -- but there were some nuns on board, and then I felt better, because I felt that they would surely be protected -- so I sort of had Divine Protection on that flight -- and sure enough -- I'm still here!!
