Great piece, and it called forth a wonderful memory.

When I was in university, I shared a huge old house with 3 other girls and one guy. Most went home for the summer months, but as I was still taking classes, I stayed, along with the guy, Roy.

We found an add from 2 Swedish guys looking for accomodations for...the exact same months our roommates were away. Perfect. They were here for a summer semester.

Bjorn and Bengt. Two blond, blue eyed, and very lovely to look at young men, whose English was perfect, if heavily accented.

The four of us got along swimmingly. Both Swedes were elite long distance runners and Bengt joked that he held the Swedish national record for the number of stress fractures.

Oh, what a summer we had.
