Interest in "O" images prompted me to look and looking caused my heart to stop. My first fiancee, a girl I met in Paris in 1960 when I was doing graduate law studies at the Law Faculty and the Institut de Droit Compare, rue St. Guillaume, was born in Arcachon. She was Eurasian and to this day literally the most breath-taking woman I have ever seen. We fell in love, kept company that year (her mom, a dentist at the American Hospital whose mother was Chinese, became like my own mom) and became engaged. When I returned to law practice in New York, she came and met my family who also fell in love with her. All kinds of complications intervened and prevented our marriage and I learned years later from her mother that she had died in 1981 of anorexia. Also sprach Gott!
