Those who forget history...

Thanks for making me feel older than I already do, Unicorn Rancher.

I spend almost two months in Berlin years before the wall came down. When it finally did come down, I was stationed in Germany.

All I needed was a reminder that happened 25 years ago.

Again, thanks a lot! -

Those wacky Europeans.

Driving a Volkswagen Camper Van, I went to Munich for the Octoberfest with my British girlfriend.

The locals insisted on referring to the city as München.

I insisted that is what we do when we eat, not the name of a city, but no, they would'nt listen.

Later, asking for directions to Brussels, all I got was confused looks and shrugs.

Would'nt you know it, they couldn't spell or pronounce this city correctly either.

They called it "Bruxelles".

Sheesh!

Anyone who thinks that we were and are safer since the collapse of the wall are delusional.
