Who were we at war with? Italy. The immigration officers arrived in their big black cars. They pulled up to the house. and there was the Senatortobe 45 years laterlittle PETEwith his sisters. and here they come. Of course. we think what happened was there was a flamboyant Italian man nearby that used toexcuse meimbibe on weekends. They think he had a little too much imbibing and he was singing a song out the window of the third floor of a hotel. right on top of the grocery store. the Montezuma Grocery Store. Of course. singing Italian. he probably excited some American who was a supercitizen. right? He was worried about these illegal aliens. So the immigration officers set about to see who among us were illegal aliens. and there she was. my mother. Alda Domenici. They decided she had to be arrested because she was an illegal alien. So. sure enough. they came to do that and a neighbor had to come over to take care of us kids. I was about 9 or 10.
