someone sitting near us in this coffee shop was telling a story that included this segment:

"i had been living in Crete on this nude beach and then i met Wolfgang and Ulga. . . actually, i was carrying my tin box where i kept my paints and Wolfgang asked why I was carrying a tin box and i explained i was an artist looking to move to germany and that i kept my paints in a tin box so they wouldn't get smooshed, so they invited me to live with them in germany."
