I guess we could do another invasion of France. It ain't that difficult anyways... [:'(]

Now, I'm not American, but those Germans (and Dutch too) that travel north to Scandinavia seem to me to be obsessed with elks, wolfs and the nature in general. Though I guess those are overwhelmingly city-dwellers from the Ruhr and other places where industry and urbanisation are widespread. [:D]

I one caught a giant "jedda" in Vättern, of course wearing a "flytwest" and seeing a lot of "troslander" [:D] That's about all I know, because my language lessens were limited to fishing [;)]

[:'(] Give it a few months to get prepared, take the usual northern route through Belgium, and we'll all be home before the leaves fall. Now, now, where did I put those land xAPs... Ah here they are... [image]local://upfiles/36309/CAD7986736E848299041BBDB9D1EFD3F.jpg[/image]

I once had 5 minute discussion with a German woman in German, despite the fact that my German language skills were straight from "Commando Comics" of childhood. Jawohl! Achtung! Genau! Keine ahnung! It took a while for her to say in English: "You didn't understand a word what I said, did you?" [:D]

Historiker -> RE: OT: Stereotypes about Germans in the US (4/16/2012 12:09:53 PM)
Well, if the younger Motlke hadn't been that stupid and afraid, the war had indeed been over in winter... But now we stand side by side in AFG, and hide at home in Libya while the FRENCH [X(] are at war. Not so bad outcome, either [;)]

We will invade France through the Ardennes snickers they will never expect that

Well, if you consider how often we "visit" you, there ain't so many choices for the best routes, either!

Sardaukar -> RE: OT: Stereotypes about Germans in the US (4/16/2012 12:57:24 PM)

All this makes me think of the old "the difference between European heaven and hell" joke... somehow I don't think that it needs repeating.
