German Customs – Patriotism on the index?

I am just listening to the CD I got as a birthday present from my best friend. He sent it when he was in Iraq – awesome! But that is a different story. Now I want to tell you what I experienced today.
Because the small parcel was not delivered to my home, no, I had [...]

“Snowing Irony”

Global warming activists can be so entertaining:
“Out With A Shiver: Global Warming Protest Frozen Out by Massive Snowfall” by Joseph Abrams, FOXNews.com, March 02, 2009:
It was snowing irony in Washington on Monday when global warming activists descended on the District like a storm — but got beaten to the punch by a blast [...]

Green World Car of the Year 2008: BMW 118d

I had completely missed out on that one: My car is the “Green World Car of the Year 2008″! Picture here
And I agree to what one of the commenters wrote:
The 118d kicks ass. (…) Besides, it’s a very agile, fun to drive RWD.
And I wonder if I get free membership with the Green Party now? [...]

Back to the year 00 - Zurück ins Jahr 00?

Is it true that Obama fans will adjust their calendars today: Back to the year 00?
Talking about the Messiah, the best statement I have ever heard on this matter is I think one of Ariel Sharon:

Very pragmatic.

Pro USA

Whoever is President some things never change:

Anti-Americanism is safe

This is a great article about anti-Americanism! I totally agree.
“False hope for global unity” by Lawrence Solomon, Financial Post,
October 31, 2008:
My American friends believe that, after Barack Obama becomes president, America will once again be loved around the world. They are wishful thinkers.
Anti-Americanism didn’t begin with George Bush and it won’t end with an Obama [...]

Why is Obama so slim?

Otherwise, he would not be able to walk on water.
I have just found this joke in today`s BILD am Sonntag and I think it is hilarious. And as long as the (Un-) Fairness Doctrine is not yet reestablished I guess I am still allowed to post it?

The (Un-) Fairness Doctrine

So far I have never had any concrete plans of emigrating to the US. But I found it reassuring to know that if ever Germany or Europe should fall back to the dark days of national socialism or communism or given most recent developments Scharia should be introduced in Germany, there would be a country [...]

“The Ruinator”

The latest STERN-cover (Nr. 44, 23.10.2008) shows President Bush with a little tattered American flag. The title reads “The Ruinator: In only eight years George W. Bush has ruined the most powerful country in the world.”
The editorial alleges that “George W. Bush has led America to the edge of bankruptcy. Economically, morally and politically.”
