John? Are layers beloved in the states as they are in germany?

Well, I am a registered Patent Lawyer, but I am ashamed to put the word lawyer in my professional description. In the US, lawyers are hated above all others, excepting child molesters, but even then, it's a hard choice.

I've worked with a lot of very neat people in Germany. My favorite is Detlef Ninnemann of Ninnemann & Maikowski - Berlin & Munich. I think you guys have the right idea. But for the rest of us, lawyers should be killed publically, and very, very, very, slowly.

Two german jokes:

What's the difference between a lawyer and god? God doesn't think he's a lawyer!

"Please don't tell my mom I'm a lawyer. She still thinks I'm the pianoman in the local whorehouse"

You see, lawyers are really loved in Germany

Why shouldn't it? A nation with pride (and a nationalistic censorship) might stop it - but in Germany, Tarentino was celebrated on the red carpet in Berlin presenting this racist anti-German movie...

But I won't spend money on it, as it's obviously a racist ant-german movie as Tarentino himself affirmed

I was curious because it obviously involves Nazis and i recalled that the original Steel Panthers had to be modified to get rid of the nazi war flag for the German version. So it made me wonder if the German government might react badly to the movie given there's alot more in it than just flags!

(well it IS Tarantino.......he's a wierd one.....the only common denominator in his movies is the comic book level violence. Can you say "Kill Bill" twice? (though anything with David Carradine in it is automatically cool. ))

Panzer General was set on the index as one was able to play germany in WW2 - and was able to win (IIRC)...
These times have changed somehow, but some things stay strange... But ok, we on the other hand can't understand why you show every imaginable violence in the cinema - but have to censor nipples...

Different nations...

If you are able to spread them out far enough in advance of next November, then I think it's a great idea. You'll really get a good appreciation of what the full 140.6 distance will be like when you realize you only completed half of it and you're exhausted.

Aim for one 2-3 months prior to IMFla, and maybe one 4-6 months before. You want 2 months in between for recovery and then getting your training ramped back up.

Torsten, check out this website. I've made a bunch of great friends there, and travelled to race with some of them. Great, great, great resources for all aspects of being an endurance athlete.
