213. My mother told me not to ask
my father war stories, I guess he hated it and had such bad experiences that he wouldn't talk about it.

Also my aunt was in show buz in the early silent movie days and that was another thing that was never talked about. I'm not sure why but she must have had bad experiences with the "casting couch" or something. I wish I knew more but you can't make someone discuss things that they don't want to remember.

I also know almost nothing about my mother's side of the family. Apparently they were some blue blood American family that went back generations but they were crazy as all get out. My mother was abused and humiliated by them so we had nothing to do with them my whole life.
