Catherine,
Speaking of pizza and beer, I got my first lesson on VM Paging at
the local pub here in Peoria. I was 23 years old and was drinking
beer and eating pizza, imagine that! The IBM SE ended up drawing
some pictures on the back of a bar napkin so I could understand it.
Then a few days later he gave me this document THE PAGING GAME

I sure learned a lot at Sully's Irish Pub back in my bachelor days!
