Josef Moving, BrooklynJosef is from a small subset I had not assumed extant: The German Italian. Apparently, up near the Austrian border, high in the mountains there, a community of German speaking Italians do their German speaking Italian thing. (Why I had not assumed their existence, is just a run-of-the-mill example of over-looking a non-random happenstance.) Josef's German speaking Italian thing entails being a slick haired, tattoo encased, neuroscientist former veterinarian with the look of a hot-rod greaser. Besides being the father of one of my favorite children, the husband of one of my favorite artists and an all around super nice guy, he has one of the most lyrical accents I've heard. Kind of an Italian speaking German speaking English sort of thing.
