Locally, a few people I encounter at the bookstore, always make me laugh.  Frank De Luca, has a local psychotherapist practice.  He also teaches at San Fransisco University, and teaches the Enneagram (a particular system of analysis to represent the spectrum of possible personality types).  Well, when Frank pops by the store, Paul & I always find ourselves laughing.  It's not the way he looks; he's a sharp dresser.  He has a great sense of humor. 

This interview took us through different aspect of Frank, his name-sake and back to his family roots; Italy.  Sure to entertain, educate and perhaps warm your heart.
