Why I did it in english?
Well, I did announce the picture-side right here on this very NG, and
I remember that JJ's german is next to non-existence....So, I guess
that she would have complained, anyway.
Another reason: I have made this side up especially for you
Guys&Dolls.

I have never, nor would I ever, complain about a website in
something other than English. To be honest, it's humbling that I only
speak/read/write in one language. I envy your ability ... to
communicate in at least two languages, and post some awesomely
beautiful photographs of places you've been.

I've never tasted German beer, or I'd probably be envious of
that, too. <g>

A Doll, a/k/a


Taking you up on your last sentence....

Well, Doll, I guess that priorities differ from country to country but
I should thing that a Cowboy (or, in your case: Cowgirl -:))), should
not die before having had or done at least 10 of the things listed
below:

1. Visited a German Beerhall
Nope
2. Had a slap of Belgian Pralinee
Nope (Slap?)
3. A pound of Russian Caviar
Nope
4. Some Swiss Cheese
Does Kraft Swiss Cheese count?
certainly not.
5. Dutch Magic Mushrooms
Nope
6. English Triffles
Nope
7. Scotch Whisky
Oh, yeah. Single and blended
8. Irish Coffee
Nope
9. Polish Wodka
Wodka? Is that some kind of sausage?
Nope. It's something one can get pissed on, but without the cops
that'll stop you smelling it.
10. Hungaria Goulash
Nope
11. Austrian Mozart-Kugel
? but I doubt it.
12. Italian Grappa
Nope
13. Danish Pastry
Does "Lill' Debbie" count?
14. Fly Luxair
Flying Air America was enough for me.
15. Greek Ouzo
Nope
16. Turkish Honey
Nope
17. Norwegian Raindeer-Steak
Actually, I don't care all that much for any game animal. Never had wild
boar, but I'd give that a shot.
18. Read a book from swedish Author Henning Mankell
Is he/she/it better than PJ ORorke?
Who's O'Rorke??
19. Visit Malta
Nope
20. Feed the Monkeys at Gibraltar
Nope.
21. Dancing the Fandago in Lisboa
Some people say that "White boys can't jump.". Most of them can't dance,
either. (Flatley is an anomoly)
22. Running with the Bulls in Spain
Well I have had a run in with a bull calf.
And last, but not the least:
23. Getting laid in Paris.
Not on my agenda.


Poor boy, But then, tastes differ.
