My dad was a young FBI agent at his first or second posting - we're all from New York. He was posted in Scranton, Pennsylvania and he put the family in a brand new red-brick apartment.

There were windows and all the ladies behind the windows in their apartments. I would go out there after lunch every day and sing opera.
