Hey Kathy ,the only thing I know in French is this song.My French is pretty bad.Here's what happened.Seen the album in a store, it had the lyrics on back of it.I read it in class, I got an A.Next week the teacher plays it in class, I still got the A.Man I was busted big time.

that is funny.

My German teacher pulled us black kids to the side and ask us about one part of the song Trans Europe Express. He thought Kraftwerk was saying something "black" that we could only understand.I didn't know until this year they were saying "with Iggy Pop and David Bowie".

lol, teachers are some of the stupidist people i know, how do they get that job?

kid said...

He was from Austria,he should have known what they were saying.

vanishing point said...

see what i mean, that's even worse.

kid said...

Kathy it took this year for me to find out.I ain't exactly Einstein.

i went to Austria once, i went to Munich for a week, and it was a day trip. by the time i left Munich (after only one week) i was speaking German, cause nobody would speak to me in English. it was a crash course, then we went to the Holocaust museum in Dachau, and if you stay for the film at the end, there's no way back to the train station for 2 hours or else walk, thats what we did,
i was calling it barbaria, i know there were some really good people there, but some of the people i met there were over the top crazy and mean, i asked this bartender for ein bier en flask, he said that they didn't have any, i pointed to other people and he sa no you won't like that.
they liked my mother though, some guy kept telling her that every day was "remembrance day" and then he fell off the bench in a drunken stupor, those bier houses are a trip.

ya know, kid, you say you ain't exactly einstein, but i think you are probably one of the most intelligent persons i have met.

you possess critical thinking skills that why i like you.

kid said...

Is there anything you haven't done?Damn, you have a exciting life.Casino in Porto Rico vacation in Germany sounds like fun.

kid said...

Hey Kathy the most beautiful thing about you other than your smile is your heart.I can hear your smile,seriously.

kid said...

Kathy about the bartender, he might have been trying to keep you away from the overproof beer,their beer has proof .American stuff is mild to them.

i used to like to travel, but not anymore, it's like going through a nazi checkpoint to get to the bathroom in an airport. someday i'll tell you about the last time i flew to puerto rice, it sucked big time.

i went to Mexico City in 1991 too, i was by myself, i only got mugged once and the guy was so nice about it that i didn't even care. i'd go back but it's so polluted and the altitude is high, i felt like i was gonna have heart attack just walking down the street, when i came back, i read in the paper that they razed an oil refinery. luis bunel went to mexico when they threw him out of the united states.

the twin's blushing.

vanishing point said...

nah, i was calling him the butcher, there were a whole bunch of kids there from bosnia i think, they didn't have much money, their parents must have put them on that bus to get them out of the war zone, and he was freakn mean as hell to them.

i didn't know that they had beer like that, but i did see a lot of people falling over in those bier hoses.

they were celebrating v-e day, so maybe that's why they weren't in such a good mood. germans that i met don't see us as liberators, we destroyed munich. what's berlin like?

kid said...

I like making you blush.I went to a casino in Windsor,Canada ,tell ya what I did.Exchange American for Canadian money,theirs come in many colors.I said it look like food stamps, all the Canadians turn around as said "American".They thought I was funny.Too bad you don't live in Cleveland.

vanishing point said...

lol, food stamps,

say listen, did you watch the circus or not?

kid said...

I didn't get a chance to.Don't worry mom I'll get to it.

kid said...

I had click on it and nothing happened. The computer is slow at times.

vanishing point said...

it's really, really funny, they threw him out of the country too.

kid said...

I got to go I really hate to go.Take care Kathy.

kid said...

After a while they did let him back.

kid said...

You ever seen "The Great Dictator" that was a good movie.His speech,yes I said speech at the end was amazing.He even mentions race, this was in the thirties.Today Sen.Obama still can't mention race.

kid said...

Good luck on the stock market.

vanishing point said...

hey kid, i love the dictator, i put that up too last week, oh yeah, the stock market, when bush got elected i took all the money in my 401k and put it in a guaranteed interest, i changed it back today.
Warren Buffet, and Colin Powell, for Obama,
McNoBrain gets a soap opera star, that boob Heather Wilson from New Mexico was on tv again today, I wrote about her in my blog how she was calling the stock market a lagging indicator, i burst out laughting, she's on today talking up McNoBrain, and she's doesn't even know what an indicator is.

vanishing point said...

ya know, what happened to Obama during this election was an eye opener for a lot of the people who had this idea about how things have changed, and how far we have come, meanwhile a klansman gets appointed by the rethugs as vp.
it's one more reason why i love o, he has the deep strength and nerves of steel that we need in this country.

kid said...

Hey Colin Powell, a Vietnam vet didn't want to run for president.
